Let’s Recall

Shown the mapping diagram below, let 𝑓 be a function that maps 𝑊 values
to the 𝑋 values and let 𝑔 be a function that maps 𝑌 values to 𝑍 values. What
relationships exist between the two values of functions 𝑓 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑔?

f g
W X Y Z

1 3 1 3
2 5 2 5
3 9 3 9
4 17 4 17

f is one-to-one g is not one-to-one

Note that f never takes on the same value twice, whereas g does take on the
same value twice, that is, 2 and 4 in Y mapps 9 in Z.

Let’s Explore

Activity 1

Check the box if the given functions are one-to-one functions?

1. books to authors
2. SIM cards to cell phone numbers

3. True or False questions to answers

4. { (1,1), (2,2), (3,9), (4,28), (5,65)}

5. { (1,5), (2,6), (3,7)}

3
Let’s Elaborate

In the examples 1-5, there are real-life situations where we can determine
whether the given relation is a function. If it is a function, determine whether it is
one-to-one or not.

Example 1
The relation pairing a GSIS member to his or her GSIS number.
Solution
It is a function since each GSIS member is assigned to a unique GSIS
number. Also, it is a one-to-one function because two different members cannot be
assigned the same GSIS number.

Example 2
The relation pairing a real number to its absolute value.
Solution
It is a function since each real number has a unique absolute value but it is
not a one-to-one function because two different numbers such as 2 and -2 may
have the same absolute value.

Example 3
The relation pairing the locations in Taguig City to its zip code. Taguig City
Postal Code or Zip Code information including location.

Location Zip Code


Bay Breeze Exec. Village 1636
Bicutan 1631
Bicutan Lower 1632
Bicutan Upper 1633
Bicutan Western 1630
Bonifacio Global City 1635
Ligid 1638
Nichols Mckinley 1634
Tuktukan 1637
Ususan 1639

Zip codes can be looked up to at postalandzipcodes.ph › zip-code-taguig-city.

Solution
Since each barangay has a unique zip code, thus it is a function. Also, since
no two barangays share the same zip code, hence it is a one-to-one function.

4
Example 4
The relation pairing a distance d (in kilometers) traveled along a given
tricycle route to the tricycle fare for traveling that distance.

Solution
Since each distance traveled along a given tricycle route has an official fare,
thus, it is represented as function. The tricycle fare may be represented by a
piecewise function, as shown below.

9.00 𝑖𝑓 0 < 𝑑 ≤ 4
𝐹(𝑑) = {
9.00 + 1.50⌊𝑑 ⌋ 𝑖𝑓 𝑑 > 4
Note that ⌊𝑑 ⌋ is the floor or greatest integer function applied to 𝑑.

However, the function is not one-to-one since a distance of 4 km and below


will charged the same rate of Php 9.00.

A simple way to determine if a given graph is that of a one-to-one function is


by using the Horizontal Line Test

Vertical Line Test. A graph represents a function if and only if each vertical line
intersects the graph at most once.

Horizontal Line Test. A graph represent a one-to-one function if each horizontal


line does not intersect the graph at more than one point.

Note: All one-to-one functions satisfy both the vertical and horizontal line test.

Example
A graph showing the plot of 𝑦 = 3𝑥 2 − 5 fails the horizontal line test because
some lines intersect the graph at more than one point and thus it is not a graph of
one-to-one function, while the graph of 𝑦 = 𝑥 3 − 2 shows a one-to-one function
because each horizontal lines intersect the graph at most once.

Activity 2

A. For each of these functions, state whether it is a one-to-one function, Y for yes
and N for no.

___1. A relation pairing a student to his LRN.


___2. Movie tickets to seat numbers

B. Identify whether the following is a graph of one-to-one function or not. Use


horizontal and vertical line test.
6. 7.

Let’s Remember

The following are the key points of this topic.

➢ The function f is one-to-one if for any 𝑥1 , 𝑥2 in the domain of 𝑓 then


𝑓(𝑥1 ) ≠ 𝑓(𝑥2 ). That is, the same y-value is never paired with two different x-
values.

➢ A graph represents a one-to-one function if each horizontal line does not


intersect the graph at more than one point.

➢ All functions satisfy the vertical line test. All one-to-one functions satisfy
both the vertical and horizontal line tests.

Let’s Explore

Activity 2

Given: 𝑦 = 2𝑥 − 1

𝑥 −4 −3 −2 −1 0 1 2 3 4
𝑦 −9

1. Is there any 𝑥 values contain same 𝑦 value?


2. Is the function one-to-one or not? Why?

Now, suppose we interchange the values of x in y.


x 3

2
y -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4

3. What equation will be use to complete the values of x?


4. Does this table with inverted values still represent a function? Why?

Let’s Elaborate Example


If 𝑥 = −4
𝑦 = 2𝑥 − 1
The importance of one-to-one functions 𝑓(𝑥) is due
to the fact that these are the only functions that have an 𝑦 = 2(−4) − 1
inverse 𝑓 −1 (𝑥). 𝑦 = −8 − 1

Definition: Let f be one-to-one function with domain A and 𝒚 = −𝟗


range B. Then the inverse of 𝑓, denoted by 𝑓 −1 is a
function with domain B and range A defined by 𝑓 −1 (𝑦) = 𝑥
if and only if 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑦 for any 𝑦 in B. Now, if 𝑦 = −4
𝑦 = 2𝑥 − 1
Example 1
−4 = 2𝑥 − 1
Find the inverse of 𝑓(𝑥) = −2𝑥 + 5 −4 + 1 = 2𝑥
−3 = 2𝑥
Solution
𝟑
𝒙=−
𝟐

8
Step 1: Write the function in the form 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑦 = 2𝑥 + 5
Step 2: Interchange the x and y variables 𝑥 = 2𝑦 + 5
Step 3: Solve for y in terms of x

𝑥 − 5 = 2𝑦 Adding both side of the equation in step 2 by -5


𝑥−5
=𝑦 Dividing both side by -2
2
𝑥−5
Therefore, the inverse of 𝑓(𝑥) = −2𝑥 + 5 is 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) = .
2

Figure at the right is the graph of the


original function and its inverse. The graph of
𝑓 is symmetric to the graph of 𝑓 −1 along the
line 𝑦 = 𝑥 (dashed line). This means that the
graph of 𝑓 −1 is a reflection of the graph of 𝑓
across the line 𝑦 = 𝑥.

Example 2

Find the inverse of 𝑔(𝑥) = 𝑥 3 + 1

Solution

Step 1: Write the function in the form y = f(x) 𝒚 = 𝒙𝟑 + 𝟏


Step 2: Interchange the x and y variables 𝒙 = 𝒚𝟑 + 𝟏
Step 3: Solve for y in terms of x

𝑥 − 1 = 𝑦3 Adding both side of the equation in


step 2 by -1
𝟑
𝐲= √𝐱−𝟏 Extracting cube root to both side of the
equation
3
Thus, the inverse of 𝑔(𝑥) = 𝑥 3 + 1 is 𝑔−1 (𝑥) = √ 𝑥 − 1.

Figure at the right is the graph of the original function and its inverse. The
graph of 𝑓 is symmetric to the graph of 𝑓 −1 along the line 𝑦 = 𝑥 (dashed line).

Example 3
3𝑥−1
Find the inverse of the rational function 𝑓(𝑥) = .
2𝑥−5
Solution
Step 1: Write the function in the form y = f(x) 𝟑𝒙 − 𝟏
𝒚 =
𝟐𝒙 − 𝟓
Step 2: Interchange the x and y variables 𝟑𝒚 − 𝟏
𝒙 =
𝟐𝒚 − 𝟓

9
Step 3: Solve for y in terms of x

𝑥(2𝑦 − 5) = 3𝑦 − 1 Multiply both side of the equation in step 2 by 2𝑦 − 5

2𝑥𝑦 – 5𝑥 = 3𝑦 − 1 Simplify by multiplying 𝑥 in the parenthesis

2𝑥𝑦 – 3𝑦 = 5𝑥 − 1 Grouping terms with variable 𝑦 in the right and 𝑥 in the left

𝑦 (2𝑥 – 3) = 5𝑥 − 1 Factoring common term 𝑦 in the right


5𝑥−1
𝑦 = Dividing both side by 2𝑥 − 3
2𝑥−3

𝟑𝒙−𝟏 𝟓𝒙−𝟏
Therefore the inverse of 𝑓(𝑥) = is 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) = .
𝟐𝒙−𝟓 𝟐𝒙−𝟑

Figure at the right is the graph of the original


function and its inverse. The graph of 𝑓 is symmetric
to the graph of 𝑓 −1 along the line 𝑦 = 𝑥 (dashed line).

Example 4

Find the inverse of 𝑓(𝑥) = |2𝑥 |, if it exists.

Solution

Step 1: Write the function in the form y = f(x) y = |𝟐𝒙|


Step 2: Interchange the x and y variables x = |2𝑦|
Step 3: Solve for y in terms of x

𝑥 = √(2𝑦)2 Applying the concept |𝑥 | = √𝑥 2 in step 2

𝑥 2 = (2𝑦)2 Raising both side by an exponent of 2

√𝑥 2 = √(2𝑦)2 Extracting square root in both side

±√𝑥 2 = 2𝑦 Dividing both side by 2

±√𝑥 2
=𝑦
2
In this function, for each values of x corresponds to two values of y, hence, it
is not a function. Therefore 𝑓(𝑥) has no inverse function.

Alternate Solution. We can also show that 𝑓 −1 does not exist by showing that 𝑓 is
not one-to-one. Note that 𝑓(1) = 𝑓(−1) = 2. Since the x-values 1 and -1 are paired
to the same y-value, then f is not one-to-one and it cannot have an inverse.
If you will try to check whether the two fuctions are inverse with each other,
then show that 𝑓 ° 𝑓 −1 = 𝑓(𝑓 −1 (𝑥)) = 𝑥. This concept is known as composite
function.
Example 5
𝒙−𝟏
Determine algebraically whether 𝑓 (𝑥) = 3𝑥 + 1 and 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) = are inverses
𝟑
of each other.

10
Solution
We will verify 𝑓(𝑓 −1 (𝑥)) = 𝑥
𝒙−𝟏
𝑓(𝑓 −1 (𝑥)) = 𝑓( )
𝟑
𝒙−𝟏
= 3( ) +𝟏
𝟑
=𝑥−1+1
=𝑥
𝒙−𝟏
Thus, 𝑓 (𝑥) = 3𝑥 + 1 and 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) = are inverses of each other.
𝟑

To determine the domain and range of an inverse function,

The outputs of the function 𝑓 are the inputs to 𝑓 −1 so the range of 𝑓 is also
the domain of 𝑓 −1 . Likewise, the inputs to 𝑓 are the outputs of 𝑓 −1 , so the domain
of 𝑓 is the range of 𝑓 −1 . To illustrate, the situation.

Domain of 𝒇 f Range of 𝒇

a b

Range of 𝒇−𝟏 𝒇−𝟏 Domain of 𝒇−𝟏

Example 6
Given: 𝑓: (1, 3), (2, 4), (3, 5), (4, 6)
The domain of 𝑓 is 1, 2, 3, 4 and the range of 𝑓 is 3, 4, 5, and 6. Now, the
inverse of 𝑓 is 𝑓 −1 : (3, 1), (4, 2), (5, 3), (6, 4). Thus, the domain of 𝑓 −1 is 3, 4, 5, and 6
and the range of 𝑓 −1 is 1, 2, 3, 1nd 4

Example 7
𝒙+𝟔
Find the domain and range of the inverse function 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) = .
𝟓

Solution

The original function is 𝑓(𝑥) = 5𝑥 – 6. The original function’s domain is the


set of all real numbers, and range is also the set of real numbers. Thus, the domain
𝒙+𝟔
and the range of 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) = is the set of all real numbers.

11
Let’s Dig In

Activity 3
1. Construct a table of values for the function 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 2 + 1 in the restricted
domain is {0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3}. Is this a one-to-one function? If it is a
one-to-one function, construct the table of values of the inverse.

Let’s Remember

The following are the key points of this topic.

➢ Let 𝑓 be a one-to-one function with domain A and range B. Then the


inverse of 𝑓, denoted by 𝑓 −1 , is a function with domain B and range A
defined by 𝑓 −1 (𝑦) = 𝑥 if and only if 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑦 for any 𝑦 in B.
➢ The inverse function of 𝑓 is denoted by 𝑓 −1 (read as “f-inverse”).
➢ A function has an inverse if and only if it is one-to-one.
➢ To find the inverse of a one-to-one function:
Step 1: Write the function in the form 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥)
Step 2: Interchange the 𝑥 and 𝑦 variables
Step 3: Solve for 𝑦 in terms of 𝑥
➢ Property of an inverse of a one-to-one function
Given a one-to-one function 𝑓(𝑥) and its inverse 𝑓 −1 (𝑥), then the following
are true: (1)The inverse of 𝑓 −1 (𝑥), is 𝑓(𝑥). (2)𝑓(𝑓 −1 (𝑥)) = 𝑥 for all 𝑥 in the
domain of 𝑓 −1 ,. (3) 𝑓 −1 (𝑓(𝑥)) = 𝑥 for all 𝑥 in the domain of 𝑓.
➢ The graph of the original function is symmetric to the graph of its inverse
along the line 𝑦 = 𝑥.
