If $f (g (x)) = x$ $f(g(x)) = x$ , then they are indeed inverses.

$f (g (x)) = 3 {(\sqrt[4]{\frac{1}{3} x - \frac{1}{3}})}^{4} + 1$ $f(g(x)) = 3(root(4)(1/3x- 1/3))^4 + 1$

$f (g (x)) = 3 {({(\frac{1}{3} x - \frac{1}{3})}^{\frac{1}{4}})}^{4} + 1$ $f(g(x)) = 3((1/3x - 1/3)^(1/4))^4 + 1$

$f (g (x)) = 3 (\frac{1}{3} x - \frac{1}{3}) + 1$ $f(g(x)) = 3(1/3x - 1/3) + 1$

$f (g (x)) = x - 1 + 1$ $f(g(x)) = x - 1 + 1$

$f (g (x)) = x$ $f(g(x)) = x$

As required
