### Understanding Graphs and Tables: Inverse Relationships

#### Statement:
"The table and graph below are inverses of each other."

#### Graph Explanation:
The graph displays a parabola opening upwards. It is symmetric about the y-axis and appears to be a standard quadratic curve, suggesting the equation might be in the form \( y = x^2 \).

- **X-axis**: Ranges from -4 to 4.
- **Y-axis**: Ranges from 0 to 10.
- **Intercepts and Symmetry**: The graph passes through the origin (0, 0) and is symmetric along the y-axis.

#### Table Data:
A table is presented with specific x and y values:

| x | y  |
|---|----|
| 1 | -1 |
| 4 | 2  |
| 9 | -3 |

#### Question:
Are the table and graph inverses of each other?

- **Options**:
  - **F**. False
  - **T**. True

### Analysis:
To determine if the table and graph are inverses:

- **Graph Equation**: If we assume the graph represents \( y = x^2 \), the inverse relationship would be \( x = y^2 \).
- **Table Check**: For the table to be an inverse, substituting y-values into the possible inverse equation \( x = y^2 \) should return the x-values.

  1. \( (-1)^2 = 1 \) (True for first set)
  2. \( 2^2 = 4 \) (True for second set)
  3. \( (-3)^2 = 9 \) (True for third set)

Thus, each pair satisfies the inverse relationship, confirming the statement as true.

**Conclusion**: The table and graph are indeed inverses of each other. The correct answer is **T**. True.
