This document discusses inverse functions and how to identify them. It defines a one-to-one function as having no two ordered pairs with the same second coordinate, meaning no horizontal line intersects the graph at more than one point. It provides examples of showing two functions are inverses by satisfying the horizontal line test, and finding the inverse of functions by switching the x- and y-coordinates of the ordered pairs in the original function. Seatwork problems are included for additional practice.

INVERSE FUNCTION
Understanding Inverse Functions
RECALL
A function is a relation which has
no two ordered pairs having the first coordinate. One-to-One Function A function is one-to-one if no two ordered pairs have the same second coordinate. One-to-One Function A function is one-to-one if, and only if, no horizontal line intersects its graph in more than one point. INVERSE FUNCTION Showing that Two Functions are Inverses Example 1.
