Question

Find the values of a through e that make these two relations inverses of each other.

a =

b =

c =

d =

e =



An image shows 2 tables. The first table is a 2-column table with 5 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries negative 3.8, b, negative 1.4, negative 0.2, 1.0. The second column is labeled y with entries negative 3.1, 3.2, c, 4.4, 5.0. The second table is a 2-column table with 5 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries negative 3.1, 3.2, 1.7, d, 5.0. The second column is labeled y with entries a, negative 2.6, negative 1.4, negative 0.2, e.

Answer 1

For inverse relations, each (x,y) in the first table becomes (y,x) in the second. Matching rows gives:

- a = -3.8
- b = -2.6
- c = 1.7
- d = 4.4
- e = 1.0
