ONE-TO-ONE FUNCTIONS x – 1 = 3y
𝑥−1 =𝑦 Definition: The function f is one-to-one if for any x1 , x2 in 3 the domain of f, f(x1) ≠ f(x2). That is, the same y-value is Therefore, the inverse of f(x)= 3x + 1 is never paired with two different x-values. f-1(x) = x-1 3 The term one-to-one relationships refers to relationships of two items in which one can only belong with the other. They are a pair. If we let f-1 (x) = g(x), we can easily verify the results Horizontal and Vertical Line Tests by applying the above conditions on the inverses of two functions: All functions satisfy the vertical line test. All one-to-one functions satisfy both the vertical and Given: f(x) = 3x + 1 𝑥−1 horizontal line tests. g(x) = 3
One-to-one Function or just a function? 𝑥−1
a. f[g(x)] = 3 ( 3 )+1 1. The relation pairing an SSS member to his/her SSS 3𝑥−3 3𝑥−3+1 (3) 3𝑥−3+3 3𝑥 number. = 3 +1 = 3 = 3 =3 =𝑥 2. The relation pairing a real number to its square. 3𝑥+1−1 3𝑥 3. The relation pairing an airport to its airport code. b. g[f(x)] = = =𝑥 3 3 4. The relation pairing a person to his/her citizenship. Property of an Inverse Function INVERSE OF ONE-TO-ONE FUNCTIONS Given a one-to-one function f(x) and its inverse f-1(x) . Every one-to-one function has an inverse. Geometrically, Then, the following are true: the inverse of the function represents the shadow of the a. the inverse of f-1(x) is f(x). function when they are algebraically interchanged. b. f(f-1(x)) = x for all x in the domain of f-1. c. f-1(f(x)) = x for all x in the domain of. A one-to-one function has an inverse if the following conditions are met: f[g(x)] = x For all x in the domain of g(x) TRY! g[f(x)] = x For all x in the domain of f(x) Solve for the inverse of the given one-to-one function and We denote g(x) by f-1(x) read as (f-inverse) do composition of functions afterwards.
