Answer:

C. f^-1(x) = (x +4)^2; x ≥ -4

Explanation:

The range of the given function f(x) is -4 ≤ f(x). This will be the domain of the inverse function.

We find the inverse function by solving ...

x = f(y)

x = √y -4

x +4 = √y

(x +4)^2 = y

The inverse function is ...

f^-1(x) = (x +4)^2 . . . for x ≥ -4
