Lesson 7 - Inverse Functions Extension Activity Sheet

The document defines two functions, f(x) = 3 - 2x and g(x) = 1/4x + 1, finds their inverse functions f^-1(x) and g^-1(x), and sketches the original functions and their inverses on the same axes. It is observed that the inverse of a function is a reflection of the original function over the line y = x.
