The document discusses inverse functions and how to find the inverse of a one-to-one function. It defines an inverse function as performing the opposite operation on the domain values and provides examples of inverse functions. It explains that the inverse of a function only exists if the original function is one-to-one, meaning it has no repeated range values. To find the inverse, the input and output values are reversed and the inverse is defined by solving for the original output in terms of the new input.

Inverse of One-to-One

Functions
What is an Inverse?
An inverse relation is a relation that
performs the opposite operation on x (the
domain).

Examples:
f(x) = x – 3 f-1(x) = x + 3
g(x) = x , x ≥ 0 g-1(x) = x2 , x ≥ 0
h(x) = 2x h-1(x) = ½ x
k(x) = -x + 3 k-1(x)= -(x – 3)

The ordered pairs of the function f are
reversed to produce the ordered pairs of
the inverse relation.

Example: Given the function


f = {(1, 1), (2, 3), (3, 1), (4, 2)}, its domain is {1,
2, 3, 4} and its range is {1, 2, 3}.

The inverse of f is {(1, 1), (3, 2), (1, 3), (2, 4)}.

The domain of the inverse relation is the


range of the original function.

The range of the inverse relation is the domain of


the original function.

4
How do we know if an
inverse function exists?
Inverse functions only exist if the
original function is one to one.
Otherwise it is an inverse relation and
cannot be written as f-1(x).
What does it mean to be one to one?

If there are no repeated y values.

Definition
Let be a one-to-one function
with domain and range . Then the
inverse of , denoted , is a
function with domain and range
defined by if and only if y for any
in .

A function has an inverse if
and only if it is one-to-one.
As shown earlier, ‘inverting’
the - and - values of a function
results in a function if and only if
the original function is one-to-
one.

Determine the Inverse of a Function
from its Equation
In light of the definition, the inverse of
a one-to-one function can be interpreted
as the same function but in the opposite
direction, that is, it is a function from a
-value back to its corresponding - value.

Steps in Finding the Inverse of a One-to-One
Function
Step 1: write the function in the form ;
Step 2: interchange the and variables;
Step 3: solve for in terms of .
