Hello,

I think the reason of this is that Mathematica cannot solve this
differential equation analytically, it can only express the result as the
inverse function of something. So probably you will not be able to get rid
of the "InverseFunction". And "#1" means the variable of the original
function. Of course you can use the function Format to change the output
style of the result.

Good luck.
