skills #1

Solution:
Applying the horizontal line, we confirm that the function is one-to-one. Reflect
the graph of f(x) across the line y = x to get the plot of the inverse function.

The result of the reflection of the graph of f(x) = √ x+1 is the graph of y = x 3 -
1. Therefore f −1 ( x) = x 3−1.

Consider the rational function f(x) = whose graph is shown below:
−x+ 2
 a) Find the domain and range.
b) Find the equation of its asymptotes.
c) Find the graph of its inverse.
d) Find the domain and range of its inverse.
Solution,
a) From our lesson on rational functions, we get the following results:
Domain of f (x) = (-∞ , 2¿ ∪( 2, ∞ )
Range of f (x) = (-∞ ,−5 ¿ ∪(−5 , ∞)
b) Using techniques from the lesson on rational functions, the equations
of the asymptotes are
Vertical asymptote: x = 2
Horizontal asymptote: y = -5
c) The inverse can be graphed by taking the reflection of the graph
across y = x.

Observe that the new asymptotes are the old asymptotes with the x
and y-values interchanged. In fact, the asymptotes could also be
obtained by reflecting the original asymptotes about the line y = x.
Vertical asymptote: x = -5
Horizontal asymptote: y = 2
d) The domain and range of the function and its inverse are as follows:

We can make the observation that the domain of the inverse is the
range of the original function, and the range of the inverse is the
domain of the original function.
E. Discussing new Discuss Solving Problems involving Inverse functions.
Say: We can apply the concepts of inverse functions in solving word problems
 concepts and involving reversible processes.

skills #2 You asked a friend to think of a nonnegative number, add two to the number,
square the number, multiply the result by 3 and divide the result by 2. If the
result is 54, what is the original number? Construct an inverse function that
will provide the original number if the result is given.

The graph is shown below. On the left, is not a one-to-one function because the
graph does not satisfy the horizontal line test. However, the instruction indicated
that
the original number must be nonnegative. The domain of the function must thus
be
restricted to x≥ 0 , and its graph is shown on the right, below.

Explanation/Discussion:
The function with restricted domain x≥ 0 is then a one-to-one function, and we

can find its inverse. Interchange the x and y variables .

Solve for y in terms of x:

Finally, we evaluate the inverse function at x = 54 to determine the original

number.

The original number is 4.

WORKSHEET

1. Construct a table of values for the function f(x) = x 2 + 1 in the restricted domain { 0, 0.5, 1,1.5, 2, 2.5, 3}. Is
this a one-to-one function? If it is a one-to-one function, construct the table of values of the inverse.

Answer:
x 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3
f(x) 1 1.25 2 3.25 5 7.25 10
Yes, f is one-to-one in the restricted domain.
