Procedures

A student is given the following table.

x	f(x)
1	5
2	8
3	5
4	11

Can an inverse function $f^{-1}$ be built from this table?

Yes — every row has a different x-value, so the inverse exists.

No — the output value 5 appears twice, so the function is not one-to-one.

Yes — the table has four rows, which is enough for an inverse.

No — only tables with consecutive integers can have inverses.
