Deconstructing and reversing a relation We denote it by 𝑓 −1 (𝑥)
Inverse Relation Deconstructing and reversing a relation We denote it by 𝑓 −1 (𝑥)

Example 1 What is the inverse of the relation? X -4 -1 5 9 Y -13 -8.5
0.5 6.5 X -13 -8.5 0.5 6.5 Y -4 -1 5 9

Example 3 Find the inverse of 𝑓 𝑥 =4𝑥−8 1. Replace 𝑓(𝑥) with 𝑦: 𝑦=4𝑥−8 2. Switch 𝑥 & 𝑦: 𝑥=4𝑦−8 3. Solve for y: 𝑥+8=4𝑦 𝑥+8 4 =𝑦 4. The inverse is 𝑓 −1 𝑥 = 𝑥+8 4

Example 4 Find the inverse of 𝑓 𝑥 =10𝑥−9 1. Replace 𝑓(𝑥) with 𝑦: 𝑦=10𝑥−9 2. Switch 𝑥 & 𝑦: 𝑥=10𝑦−9 3. Solve for y: 𝑥+9=10𝑦 𝑥+9 10 =𝑦 4. The inverse is 𝑓 −1 𝑥 = 𝑥+9 10
9
Example 5 Find the inverse of 𝑓 𝑥 =− 1 2 𝑥 Replace with 𝑦: 𝑦=− 1 2 𝑥 Switch: 𝑥=− 1 2 𝑦 Solve: 𝑥−11=− 1 2 𝑦 −2 𝑥−11 =−2𝑥+22=𝑦 4. Inverse: 𝑓 −1 𝑥 =−2𝑥+22

Example 6 The following table represents the function 𝑓(𝑥). What is the value of 𝑓 −1 (4)? 𝑓 −1 (4) is looking for where does 𝑓(𝑥) have 4 as the y- value. This is when 𝑥=2. Thus 𝑓 −1 4 =2 x f(x) -4 2 4 5 -10 9
11
Example 7 The following table represents the function 𝑓(𝑥). What is the value of 𝑓 −1 (10)? 𝑓 −1 (4) is looking for where does 𝑓(𝑥) have 10 as the y- value. This is when 𝑥=9. Thus 𝑓 −1 4 =9 x f(x) -3 2 14 10 -1 9
