Question 1

Which of the following statements best describes a one-to-one function?

Accepted Answer

A function where each $$x$$ value corresponds to only one $$y$$ value, and each $$y$$ value corresponds to only one $$x$$ value.

Question 2

Given $$f(x) = 2x - 3$$, what is the inverse function $$f^{-1}(x$$)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$f^{-1}(x$$) = \frac{x+3}{2}$$

Question 11

If $$f(x)$$ and $$g(x)$$ are inverses, which of the following must be true for all $$x in $$the domain of $$f$$?

Accepted Answer

Both $$f(g(x)) = x$$ and $$g(f(x)) = x$$

Question 12

Which of the following best describes the graphical relationship between a function and its inverse?

Accepted Answer

They are reflections of each other over the line $$y = x.$$
