You learned that the inverse of a function f(x) “undoes” f(x). Its graph is a reflection across line y = x. The inverse may or not be a function.

Recall that the vertical-line test can help you determine whether a relation is a function. Similarly, the horizontal-line test can help you determine whether the inverse of a function is a function.

To write the rule for the inverse of a function, you can exchange x and y and solve the equation for y. Because the value of x and y are switched, the domain of the function will be the range of its inverse and vice versa.

CC.9-12.A.CED.3 Represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and by systems of equations and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or nonviable options in a modeling context.

You have seen that the inverses of functions are not necessarily functions. When both a relation and its inverses are functions, the relation is called a one-to-one function. In a one-to-one function, each y-value is paired with exactly one x-value.

You can use composition of functions to verify that two functions are inverses. Because inverse functions “undo” each other, when you compose two inverses the result is the input value x.
