x is the yes yes ok

Marc Brady · Answer 2

x amount of money determines y number of hours to make a painting of that cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of a function, is the function or rule formed by reflecting the line over y=x. This means essentially that all (x, y) values from the original function switch to (y, x).

(x, y) - --> (y, x) in the new function.

If the function determines the amount (y) he makes in x hours. The inverse determines how many y hours it takes to earn x amount of money.
