Inverse Functions
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
The inverse of a one-to-one function reverses its inputs and outputs: f⁻¹(y) = x exactly when f(x) = y, and only one-to-one functions have inverses.
Show
For f(x) = 2x + 3, the inverse is f⁻¹(x) = (x − 3)/2: where f sends 4 to 11, f⁻¹ sends 11 home to 4.
