Graph and recognize inverses of relations and functions. Find inverses of functions.

1. Remember! A relation is a set of ordered pairs. A function is a relation in which each x-value has, at most, one y-value paired with it. Objectives Graph and recognize inverses of relations and functions. Find inverses of functions.

2. 3. A thermometer gives a reading of 25° C. Use the formula C = (F – 32). Write the inverse function and use it to find the equivalent temperature in °F. 5 9 NOTES 1. A relation consists of the following points and the segments drawn between them. Write the ordered pairs for the inverse. And, find the domain and range of the inverse relation: 2. Graph f(x) = 3x – 4. Then write and graph the inverse.

3. You can also find and apply inverses to relations and functions. To graph the inverse relation, you can reflect each point across the line y = x. This is equivalent to switching the x- and y-values in each ordered pair of the relation.

4. Example 1: Graphing Inverse Relations Graph the relation and connect the points. Then graph the inverse. Identify the domain and range of each relation. Graph each ordered pair and connect them. ● Switch the x- and y-values in each ordered pair. ● ● ●

9. You can also find the inverse function by writing the original function with x and y switched and then solving for y.

10. Graph f(x) = – x – 5. Then write the inverse and graph. x = – y – 5 y = – x – 5 1 1 1 1 x + 5= – y 2 2 2 2 Example 3: Writing and Graphing Inverse Functions Set y = f(x) and graph f. Switch x and y. Solve for y. y =–2x - 10

11. Graph f(x) = – x – 5. Write the inverse & graph. 1 2 f f –1 Example 3 Continued f–1(x) = –2x – 10

12. Remember! In a real-world situation, don’t switch the variables, because they are named for specific quantities. Anytime you need to undo an operation or work backward from a result to the original input, you can apply inverse functions.

13. c – 2.50 = L 0.80 Example 4: Retailing Applications Juan buys a CD online for 20% off the list price. He has to pay $2.50 for shipping. The total charge is $13.70. What is the list price of the CD? Step 1 Write an equation for the total charge as a function of the list price. Charge c is a function of list price L. c = 0.80L + 2.50 Step 2 Find the inverse function that models list price as a function of the change. c–2.50 = 0.80L Divide to isolate L.

14. L = 13.70 – 2.50 0.80 = 13.70  Example 4 Continued Step 3 Evaluate the inverse function for c = $13.70. Substitute 13.70 for c. = 14 The list price of the CD is $14. Checkc = 0.80L + 2.50 = 0.80(14) + 2.50 Substitute. = 11.20 + 2.50
