Answer 1

To find the inverse of the function given in the table, we will swap the \(x\) and \(f(x)\) values.

The original function \(f(x)\) from the table is:
- \(f(-3) = -10\)
- \(f(-1) = -7\)
- \(f(0) = 0\)
- \(f(1) = 2\)
- \(f(3) = 8\)

To find the inverse \(g(x)\), we swap the values:

1. From \(f(-3) = -10\), we have \(g(-10) = -3\)
2. From \(f(-1) = -7\), we have \(g(-7) = -1\)
3. From \(f(0) = 0\), we have \(g(0) = 0\)
4. From \(f(1) = 2\), we have \(g(2) = 1\)
5. From \(f(3) = 8\), we have \(g(8) = 3\)

Putting those together, the inverse function \(g(x)\) can be summarized as:

\[
g(x) =
\begin{cases}
-3 & \text{if } x = -10 \\
-1 & \text{if } x = -7 \\
0 & \text{if } x = 0 \\
1 & \text{if } x = 2 \\
3 & \text{if } x = 8 \\
\end{cases}
\]

Now we check the options given in your question.

The correct answer is:

**Option 1:**
x −10
−7
0 2 8
g(x)
−3
−1
0 1 3

So the inverse of the function given in the table is \(g(x) = -3, -1, 0, 1, 3\) for \(x = -10, -7, 0, 2, 8\) respectively.
