Answer:

If H^-1(x) is the inverse of H(x) , then the value of the composition function:

H^-1(H(x)) is:

Option: D

D. x

Explanation:

We know that the composition of a function and its inverse always gives us the resultant as identity function.

Here we have the function H(x) and its inverse function is represented by H^-1(x)

Then the composition:


H^(-1)H(x)=H(H^(-1)(x))=I(x)=x

where I denotes the identity function.

Hence, the correct answer is: Option: D
