Answer:
(d) The functions are not inverses because for each ordered pair (x, y) for one function, there is no corresponding ordered pair (y, x) for the other function.
Step-by-step explanation:
If functions are represented by a table of ordered pairs, their inverse function is the set of ordered pairs with the x- and y-values swapped.
Here, for (x, y) = (0.75, 1038.18), the pair from the other table that begins to correspond is (y, x) = (0.75, 1057.81). These reversed pairs are not the same, so the functions are not inverses of each other.

<em>Comment on the tables</em>
Table A is for a 5-year investment; table B is for a 7.5 year investment. They cannot be inverses of each other.
$97.20 divided by $9.25 is 10 hours
Smallest side XYZ/ Smallest side ABC = Longest side XYZ/ Longest side ABC
Let longest side XYZ be x
280/112 = x/144
x = (280/112)×144
x = 360
Option D will be your answer
