 Inverse of One to One Function

Let f be a one-to-one function with domain A and a range B. The  inverse of f

denoted by f-1 is a function with a domain B and a range A defined by f-1(y) = x, if
and only if f(x) = y , for any y in B.
Only one-to-one function has an inverse . If a function f is not one-to-one, properly
defining an inverse function f-1 will be problematic. For example, suppose that f(1) =
5 and f(3) = 5. If f-1 exists, then f-1 (5) has to be both 1 and 3, and this prevents f-1
from being a valid function. This is the reason why the inverse is only defined for
one-to-one functions.
 Inverse of One to One Function
In the previous activity, we can find the inverse of a
function by following the given steps.
 Write the function in the form y = f(x); 
 Interchange the x and y variables; 
 Solve for y in terms of x

 Graph of an Inverse Function
First, we need to ascertain that the given graph corresponds to
a one-to-one function by applying the horizontal line test. If it
passes the test, the corresponding function is one-to-one.
