 1. Section 6.2 One-to-One Functions

Definition 1.1. A function is one-to-one if whenever you choose two different numbers
x1 and x2 in the domain of f , you have f (x1 ) and f (x2 ) are also different. In other words,
each value of x corresponds to only one y and each value of y corresponds to only one x.

Example 1.1. Select the one-to-one function.

(A) {(2, 5), (6, 2), (5, 3), (3, 5), (4, 4)}

(B) {(5, 2), (2, 6), (3, 5), (5, 3), (4, 4)}

(C) {(5, 2), (2, 6), (3, 5), (1, 3), (4, 4)}

Theorem 1.1 (Horizontal Line Test). A function f is one-to-one if and only if you cannot
draw a horizontal line passing through the graph of f more than once.

 Section 6.2 One-to-one and Inverse Functions 3

2. Inverse Functions

Definition 2.1. Let f be a one-to-one function. Then there is a function denoted f −1 called
the inverse of f such that the domain and ranges of f and f −1 are interchanged and f (a) = b
if and only if f −1 (b) = a.

Example 2.1. If f is a one-to-one function and f (3) = −5, then what is f −1 (−5)?

Remark 2.1. If f (x) and g(x) are inverse functions, the domain of f (x) is the same as the
range of g(x).

3. Properties of Inverses

(1) A function g is the inverse of f (and visa versa) if and only if (f ◦ g)(x) = x and
(g ◦ f )(x) = x. Reminder: (f ◦ g)(x) = f (g(x)).

Example 3.1. Find f (f −1 (4)) given 4 is in the range of f .

(2) The domain of f is the range of f −1 and the domain of f −1 is the range of f .

Example 3.2. Find the domain and range for the inverse of the function f (x) =
4x − 2 on [−3, 2]. Notice f (x) has a restricted domain to make f (x) a line segment.

 Section 6.2 One-to-one and Inverse Functions 5

Steps to find the inverse, y = f −1 (x), from a one-to-one function, y = f (x)

(1) In y = f (x), interchange the variables x and y to obtain x = f (y). This equation
defines the inverse function f −1 implicitly.
(2) Solve x = f (y) for y in terms of x. Now y = f −1 (x).
(3) Check the result by showing f −1 (f (x)) = x and f (f −1 (x)) = x .

Remark 4.1. In applications in many Applied Math courses, one must be careful of units
and the variable may have significance, thus it may be preferable not to switch the variables.
In this case, solve for x in the original function. For Precalculus Algebra we will always
switch the variables when finding the inverse function.

Example 4.3. Find the formula for the inverse of the function f (x) = 4x − 2 on [−3, 2].
From Example 3.2, the domain of f (x) is [−3, 2] and the range of f (x) is [−14, 6].

Example 4.4. Find the formula for the inverse of the function f (x) = (x − 1)2 − 2 on
(−∞, 1). (The domain is restricted to make f (x) a one-to-one function.)
