The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.

First, use the positive value of the $\pm$ to find the first solution.

$y = \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$

Next, use the negative value of the $\pm$ to find the second solution.

$y = - \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$

The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.

$y = \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$

$y = - \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$

$y = \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$

$y = - \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$

$y = \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$

$y = - \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$

Replace $y$ with $f^{- 1} (x)$ to show the final answer.

$f^{- 1} (x) = \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}, - \frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}$
