Well, what have you tried so far?

You have some text-form expression difficulties. You seem to want to find the inverse of
f(x) = \frac{1}{x+1} - \frac{2}{9}
In which you may create the transformation using f(x)=y of
x = \frac{1}{y+1} - \frac{2}{9}

Solve for y which will really be your inverse of the original function. Watch your algebra steps carefully, and then try checking your result again.

That looks very bad when I view the forum result; the 'tex' tagged portions look blackened and are not readable or legible. Is this just me here, or does it look that way for everybody?
