2. Finding an inverse function
Determine whether the function has an inverse by checking to see if it is one-to-one using the horizontal line test
In the equation 𝑓(𝑥), replace 𝑓 𝑥 with 𝑦, and then interchange 𝑥 and 𝑦.
Solve for 𝑦 and then replace 𝑦 with 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) in the new equation
State any restrictions on the domain of 𝑓 −1 . Then show that the domain of 𝑓 is equal to the range of 𝑓 −1 and the range of 𝑓 is equal to the domain of 𝑓 −1

3. DIY Inverses Find the inverses of the following functions if possible:
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥−1 𝑥+2
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥−4
𝑓 𝑥 =−16+ 𝑥 3
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥+7 𝑥

4. Compositions of inverse functions
Two functions 𝑓 and 𝑔 are inverse functions if and only if:
𝑓 𝑔 𝑥 =𝑥 for every x in the domain of 𝑔 𝑥
𝑔 𝑓 𝑥 =𝑥 for every x in the domain of 𝑓(𝑥)

5. The Proof is in the Pudding
Verify that the following are inverses.
𝑓 𝑥 = 6 𝑥−4 and 𝑔 𝑥 = 6 𝑥 +4
𝑓 𝑥 =18−3𝑥 and 𝑔 𝑥 =6− 𝑥 3
𝑓 𝑥 =18−3𝑥, 𝑔 𝑥 =6− 𝑥 3
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥 2 +10,𝑥≥10;𝑔 𝑥 = 𝑥−10

6. Real-World Example
Kendra earns $8 an hour, works at least 40 hours per week, and receives overtime pay at 1.5 times her regular hourly rate for any time over 40 hours . Her total earnings 𝑓(𝑥) for a week in which she worked 𝑥 hours is given by 𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥−40 .
Explain why the inverse exists. Then find the inverse
What do 𝑓 −1 𝑥 and 𝑥 represent in the inverse function?
What restriction, if any, should be put on 𝑓 𝑥 and 𝑓 −1 𝑥 . Explain
Find the number of hours Kendra worked last week if her earnings were $380.

11. Transformations of exponential functions
Using the rules we have already learned, describe the following transformations given that 𝑓 𝑥 = 2 𝑥 is the parent function.
𝑔 𝑥 = 2 𝑥+1
ℎ 𝑥 = 2 −𝑥
𝑗 𝑥 =−3( 2 𝑥 )
𝑘 𝑥 = 2 𝑥 −2

12. Natural Base exponential function
Most real world applications don’t use base 2 or base 10, but instead use an irrational number called e.
e is
𝑒= lim 𝑥→∞ 𝑥 𝑥
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑒 𝑥 is called the natural base exponential function.

a 𝑥 = 𝑒 4𝑥
b 𝑥 = 𝑒 −𝑥 +3
𝑐 𝑥 = 1 2 𝑒 𝑥

14. Real world applications: compound interest
Suppose an initial principle P is invested into an account with an annual interest rate r, and the interest rate is compounded or reinvested annually. At the end of each year, the interest earned is added to the account balance. The sum is the new principle for the next year.

15. To allow for quarterly, monthly, or even daily compoundings, let n be the The rate per compounding is: The number of compoundings after t years is: So the equation becomes:

20. Suppose Krysti finds an account that will allow her to invest her $300 at a 6% rate compounded continuously. If there are no other deposits or withdrawals, what will Krysti’s account balance be after 20 years?

21. If $10,000 is invested in an online savings account earning 8% per year compounded continuously, how much will be in the account at the end of 10 years if there are no other deposits or withdrawals?

22. Exponential growth or decay
Exponential growth and decay models apply to any situation where growth is proportional to the initial size of the quantity being considered.
Rate r or k must be expressed as a decimal.

If the number of reported cases of chicken pox is decreasing at an exponential rate, identify the rate of decline and write an exponential equation to model this situation
Use your model to predict when the number of cases will drop below 20,000.
