1. Problem Description

The problem provides a table of values for a function f(x)f(x) and asks us to identify the table of values for its inverse function f1(x)f^{-1}(x).

2. Solution Steps

To find the inverse function f1(x)f^{-1}(x), we need to swap the xx and yy values in the original table. That is, if the table for f(x)f(x) contains the entry (a,b)(a,b), then the table for f1(x)f^{-1}(x) must contain the entry (b,a)(b,a).
The given table for f(x)f(x) is:
xx | 3 | 4 | 9 | 11 | 16
---|---|---|---|---|---
yy | 1 | 6 | 7 | 13 | 14
Swapping xx and yy values, we obtain the table for f1(x)f^{-1}(x):
xx | 1 | 6 | 7 | 13 | 14
---|---|---|---|---|---
yy | 3 | 4 | 9 | 11 | 16
This is the last table in the answer choices.

3. Final Answer

The correct table for the inverse function f1(x)f^{-1}(x) is the one where xx and yy have been swapped. This is the option:
xx | 1 | 6 | 7 | 13 | 14
---|---|---|---|---|---
yy | 3 | 4 | 9 | 11 | 16
