Answer:
a) Yes
b) for reference, draw the line y = x, and reflect it over that, this reflection will be your inverse. Or switch the x and y values of each point of the function.
Here is a photo of the original function in black, it's inverse in red, and the line of reflection y = x in blue:
c) No, because it fails the vertical line test, when you draw a vertical line across the inverse function, it hits it more than once.
d) Domain of the original function: -6 ≤ x ≤ 6 ; x(the domain) is greater than or equal to -6 and less than or equal to 6.
e) Domain of inverse function: 0 ≤ x ≤ 4 ; x(the domain) is greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 4.
f) Range of the original function: 0 ≤ y ≤ 4 ; y(the range) is greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 4.
e2) Range of the inverse function: -6 ≤ y ≤ 6 ; y(the range) is greater than or equal to -6 and less than or equal to 6.
f2) x-intercept of original function: -6
g) y-intercept of the inverse function: -6
h) x-intercept of the inverse function: 4
i) y-intercept of the original function: 4
j) (2,2) or any point where the x, and y are the same within the function, or the point where the function intersects y = x.
<u>The concept:</u>
We are given the equation:
Which can be simplified as:
Since any number to the power '0' is 1
x² - x must be equal to 0 for the given equation to be true
<u></u>
<u>Solving for x:</u>
x² - x = 0
x(x-1) = 0
now, we can divide both sides by either x OR x-1
So we will see what we get for either choice:
x = 0/(x-1) x-1 = 0/x
x = 0 x = 1
Hence, the value of x is either 0 or 1
