The answer is 1) ± √x+81

Step 1: Substitute y for f(x). 
Step 2: 
Since every (x, y) has its partner (y, x)y switch x and y.
Step 3: Solve for y.

Step 1.
The function is:         f(x) = x
² - 81
Substitute y for f(x):   y = x² - 81

Step 2.
Switch x and y: x = y² - 81

Step 3.
Solve for y (which is now f⁻¹(x)): f⁻¹(x) = y
x = y² - 81
y² = x + 81
y = +-√(x+81)

Therefore, the choice 1) is correct.
