Inverse Functions
Function If for every x there exists at most one y One – to – One Function If for every x there exists at most one y AND for every y there exists at most one x Function Function One – to – One NOT One – to – One
Only one – to – one functions have inverses GRAPHICALLY One – to – One Function Inverse
Function and Inverse have Symmetry about the line y = x One – to – One Function Inverse Function and Inverse have Symmetry about the line y = x
Find the inverse graph of the function below, if it exists. Since not ONE – TO – ONE, no inverse function exists

Derivatives of Inverse Functions If f is differentiable at every point on an interval, and f ’ is never zero on the interval, then: is differentiable at every point on the interior of the Interval and its value at the point f(x) is:
Find the derivative of the inverse of f(x) = 5 – 4x evaluated at c = ½
Find the derivative of the inverse of evaluated at c = 4 Not One-to-One However….One-to-One on [2, 6] which not only includes c = 4, but it also eliminates f ‘ (x) = 0 issue as well Alternative…….
Find the derivative of the inverse of evaluated at c = 4
Find the derivative of the inverse of at c = 1
