Answer :

Given the function

[tex]f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x-15}[/tex]

we want to find the its inverse function

[tex]f^{-1}(x).[/tex]

In order to do that, we will replace f(x) with y. This is done to make the rest of the process easier. So, we have

[tex]y=\sqrt[3]{x-15}[/tex]

Now, let's replace every x with a y and every y with an x,

[tex]x=\sqrt[3]{y-15}[/tex]

and we must solve this equation for y. Then, by raising both sides to the third power, we get

[tex]x^3=y-15[/tex]

and by adding 15 to both sides, we have

[tex]\begin{gathered} x^3+15=y \\ or\text{ equivalently,} \\ y=x^3+15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Finally, by replacing y with f^-1(x), we have

[tex]f^{-1}(x)=x^3+15[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is option C.
