What is an inverse function?

Back

An inverse function reverses the effect of the original function. If f(x) = y, then the inverse function f⁻¹(y) = x.

How can you determine if two functions are inverses of each other?

Back

Two functions f and g are inverses if f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x for all x in the domain.

What is a one-to-one function?

Back

A one-to-one function is a function where each output is produced by exactly one input, meaning no two different inputs map to the same output.

What is the horizontal line test?

Back

The horizontal line test is a method to determine if a function is one-to-one. If any horizontal line intersects the graph more than once, the function is not one-to-one.

What does it mean for a function to be not a function?

Back

A relation is not a function if at least one input is associated with more than one output.

What is the notation for an inverse function?

Back

The notation for an inverse function is f⁻¹(x), where f is the original function.
