Given that

[tex]f(x)=log_5(x+1)[/tex]

To solve the question, we will have to first find the inverse of the function

[tex]f(x)=\text{ y = }log_5(x+1)[/tex][tex]5^y\text{ =x + 1}[/tex]

Make x the subject of the formula

[tex]x=5^y\text{ - 1}[/tex]

The inverse of the function is:

[tex]f^{-1}(x)=5^x\text{ - 1}[/tex]

Substituting x = 2

[tex]\begin{gathered} f^{-1}(2)=5^2\text{ - 1} \\ f^{-1}(2)=25\text{ - 1} \\ \\ f^{-1}(2)=24 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer = 24

Option D is correct
