This video tutorial covers inverse functions, focusing on two methods to determine if functions are inverses: using composition and finding the inverse directly. It includes examples to illustrate these methods, such as proving inverses through composition and identifying non-inverse functions. A bonus question is also discussed, verifying a student's claim about inverse functions.

In example seven, what is the composition of f(g(x))?

• x

• x + 1

• 2x

• x - 1
