Graph the inverse of each one-to-one function.

검증된 단계별 안내

Step 1: Understand that the inverse of a function reflects the graph of the original function across the line \(y = x\). This means every point \((a, b)\) on the original function will correspond to a point \((b, a)\) on the inverse function.
Step 2: Identify key points on the original graph. For example, note points where the curve crosses grid lines or has notable coordinates, such as the origin \((0,0)\) and other points where the function value is clear.
Step 3: For each key point \((x, y)\) on the original graph, plot the point \((y, x)\) on the coordinate plane. This will give you points on the inverse function.
Step 4: Connect these new points smoothly, maintaining the shape but reflected over the line \(y = x\). The inverse graph should be a mirror image of the original graph with respect to this line.
Step 5: Optionally, draw the line \(y = x\) as a reference to verify that the original function and its inverse are symmetric about this line.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

One-to-One Function

A one-to-one function is a function where each input corresponds to a unique output, and no two different inputs share the same output. This property ensures the function has an inverse because it can be reversed without ambiguity.

Inverse Function

The inverse of a function reverses the roles of inputs and outputs, swapping x and y values. Graphically, the inverse function is the reflection of the original function across the line y = x, meaning every point (a, b) on the function corresponds to (b, a) on its inverse.

Graphing and Reflection Across y = x

To graph the inverse of a function, reflect the original graph across the line y = x. This means that the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of all points on the original graph are interchanged, producing the graph of the inverse function.
