Table A represents the function that models the stopping distance in feet of a derby car, d(x), based on the velocity in miles per hour of the car, x.Table B represents the function that models the velocity of a car, v(d), in miles per hour based on distance in feet it took the car to stop, d.

Question illustration
A
Since the functions in both tables are increasing, they are inverses.
B
Since the functions in both tables are increasing, they are not inverses.
C
Since for each ordered pair (x, y) for one function there is an ordered pair (y, x) for the other function, the functions are inverses.
D
Since for each ordered pair (x, y) for one function there is an ordered pair (y, x) for the other function, the functions are not inverses.

Consider the tables that represent ordered pairs corresponding to a function and its inverse.

Question illustration
A
According to the tables, f(x) does not have a y-intercept.
B
According to the tables, f–1(x) does not have an x-intercept.
C
The domain of f(x) is restricted such that x ≥ 0, so the domain of f–1(x) is restricted such that y ≥ 0.
D
The range of f(x) includes values such that y ≥ 1, so the domain of f–1(x) includes values such that x ≥ 1.

Consider the tables that represent a continuous function and its inverse.

Question illustration
A
The reciprocal of the slope of f(x) is the same as the slope of f–1(x).
B
The negative reciprocal of the slope of f(x) is the same as the slope of f–1(x).
C
The y-coordinate of the y-intercept of f(x) is the same as the y-coordinate of the y-intercept of f–1(x).
D
The opposite of the y-coordinate of the y-intercept of f(x) is the same as the x-coordinate of the x-intercept of f–1(x).
