Answer:

Option d is right.

Explanation:

We know that a relation is a function only if every element in domain has a unique image.

A function has an inverse only if it is one to one and on to.

Here image is -5

Since one to one function, preimage is only 4

Hence inverse function will have ordered pair as

(-5,4)

Option d is right
