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

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the given function on the graph. It is a straight line, which suggests it is a linear function of the form \(y = mx + b\).
Determine the slope (\(m\)) and y-intercept (\(b\)) of the original function by examining the graph. For example, find two points on the line and use the formula \(m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\) to calculate the slope.
Write the equation of the original function using the slope and y-intercept found.
To find the inverse function, swap the roles of \(x\) and \(y\) in the equation of the original function. This means replace \(y\) with \(x\) and \(x\) with \(y\) to get an equation in terms of \(y\).
Solve this new equation for \(y\) to express the inverse function explicitly. Then, graph this inverse function by plotting points or using the slope and intercept found from the inverse equation. Remember, the graph of the inverse is the reflection of the original function across the line \(y = x\).

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 exactly one unique output, and each output corresponds to exactly one unique input. This property ensures the function has an inverse because no two inputs share the same output.

Inverse Function

The inverse of a function reverses the roles of inputs and outputs, swapping x and y values. Graphically, the inverse function is a reflection of the original function across the line y = x.

Graphing and Reflection Across y = x

To graph the inverse of a function, reflect each point of the original function across the line y = x. This means swapping the coordinates (x, y) to (y, x), which visually demonstrates the inverse relationship.
