Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the inverse function, solve for y:
![x=f(y)\\\\x=4y^4\\\\\dfrac{x}{4}=y^4\\\\\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{x}{4}}=y\\\\f^{-1}(x)=\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{x}{4}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3Df%28y%29%5C%5C%5C%5Cx%3D4y%5E4%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%3Dy%5E4%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%7D%3Dy%5C%5C%5C%5Cf%5E%7B-1%7D%28x%29%3D%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%7D)
f(x) is an even function, so f(-x) = f(x). Then the inverse relation is double-valued: for any given y, there can be either of two x-values that will give that result.
___
A function is single-valued. That means any given domain value maps to exactly one range value. The test of this is the "vertical line test." If a vertical line intersects the graph in more than one point, then that x-value maps to more than one y-value.
The horizontal line test is similar. It is used to determine whether a function has an inverse function. If a horizontal line intersects the graph in more than one place, the inverse relation is not a function.
__
Since the inverse relation for the given f(x) maps every x to two y-values, it is not a function. You can also tell this by the fact that f(x) is an even function, so does not pass the horizontal line test. When f(x) doesn't pass the horizontal line test, f^-1(x) cannot pass the vertical line test.
_____
The attached graph shows the inverse relation (called f₁(x)). It also shows a vertical line intersecting that graph in more than one place.

Answer:
b. {-3, -1, 2}
Step-by-step explanation:
An <u>ordered pair</u> is a pair of elements written as (x, y) where the first element is the input value and the second element is the output value.
The <u>domain</u> is the set of input values (x-values)
The <u>range</u> is the set of output values (y-values)
Therefore, for the given ordered pairs (-1, 0), (2, 4) and (-3, 6)
Domain: {-3, -1, 2}
Range: {0, 4, 6}
