See graph and details.

Explanation:

y=arctan(2x3)(π2,π2)

yasymptotuc ±π2

Inversely,

x=12(tany+3) the period in y-directions = π.

So, one period is y(π2,π2), the range of y..

See graph that is restricted to one period:
graph{(y - arctan(2x-3))(y^2-1/4(pi)^2)=0}

For the piecewise-wholesome inverse

y=(tan)1(2x3)=kπ + given y,k=0,±1,±2,±3,.

the graph is immediate, using the inverse of the given equation

x=12(tany+3).

See graph.
graph{x-1/2(3 + tany)=0[-20 20 -10 10]}
It is a wrong practice to swap ( x, y ) to ( y, x ) and call

y=12(tanx+3)

the inverse of the given equation, and rotate the graph for the

given equation, for y(π2,π2).

In te chosen piece, the graphs of both the given equation and its

wholesome inverse ought to be the same. ..
