    Inverse functions: True or false questions

    True or false. Determine whether the statement is true or false. If false, explain why and give an example that shows its false. 1) If the inverse function of f exists, then the y-intercept of f is an x-intercept of f^-1 (f inverse). 2) There exists no function f such that f = f^-1 (f inverse)
