Trejo says that if you know the x‑intercepts, y‑intercepts, domain, and range of a function then you automatically know the x‑intercepts, y‑intercepts, domain, and range of its inverse. Hilary disagrees. She says you know the intercepts but that is all you know for sure. Who is correct? Justify your answer

Trejo is correct as long as the domains are restricted properly

Kirsta was working with the function machine shown at right, but when she turned her back, her little brother Caleb dropped in a number. She did not see what he dropped in, but she did see what fell out: 9

  1. What operations must she perform on 9 to undo what her machine did? Use this to determine what number Caleb dropped in.
