5.3 The Derivative of an Inverse Function
Remember… If a function f has an inverse function f -1, Then f (a) = b implies that f -1(b) = a. x’s and y’s switch!
The Derivative of f -1(x): So…The derivative of the inverse is the reciprocal of the derivative of the original
Ex 1) Given that y = f(x) = x3 + 2x – 3 is a one-to–one function, and thus has an inverse, find (f -1)'(0).
