2 A function f is defined by \(\mathrm { f } : x \mapsto 4 - 5 x\) for \(x \in \mathbb { R }\).
  1. Find an expression for \(\mathrm { f } ^ { - 1 } ( x )\) and find the point of intersection of the graphs of \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x )\) and \(y = \mathrm { f } ^ { - 1 } ( x )\).
  2. Sketch, on the same diagram, the graphs of \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x )\) and \(y = \mathrm { f } ^ { - 1 } ( x )\), making clear the relationship between the graphs.
