Lesson 19 NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM M3 ALGEBRA II 4. π(π₯) = 2π₯−3 5. π(π₯) = 6. Cindy thinks that the inverse of π(π₯) = π₯ − 2 is π(π₯) = 2 − π₯. To justify her answer, she calculates π(2) = 0 and then substitutes the output 0 into π to get π(0) = 2, which gives back the original input. Show that Cindy is incorrect by using other examples from the domain and range of π. 7. After finding the inverse for several functions, Henry claims that every function must have an inverse. Rihanna says that his statement is not true and came up with the following example: If π(π₯) = |π₯| has an inverse, then because π(3) and π(−3) both have the same output 3, the inverse function π would have to map 3 to both 3 and −3 simultaneously, which violates the definition of a function.

Lesson 19 NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM M3 ALGEBRA II Lesson Summary ο§ INVERTIBLE FUNCTION: Let π be a function whose domain is the set π and whose image is the set π. Then π is invertible if there exists a function π with domain π and image π such that π and π satisfy the property: ο§ The function π is called the inverse of π. ο§ If two functions whose domain and range are a subset of the real numbers are inverses, then their graphs are reflections of each other across the diagonal line given by π¦ = π₯ in the Cartesian plane. ο§ If π and π are inverses of each other, then For all π₯ in π and π¦ in π, π(π₯) = π¦ if and only if π(π¦) = π₯. ο§ ο§ οΊ The domain of π is the same set as the range of π. οΊ The range of π is the same set as the domain of π. In general, to find the formula for an inverse function π of a given function π: οΊ Write π¦ = π(π₯) using the formula for π. οΊ Interchange the symbols π₯ and π¦ to get π₯ = π(π¦). οΊ Solve the equation for π¦ to write π¦ as an expression in π₯. οΊ Then, the formula for π is the expression in π₯ found in step (iii). The functions π(π₯) = log π (π₯) and π(π₯) = π π₯ are inverses of each other. Problem Set 1. For each function β below, find two functions π and π such that β(π₯) = π(π(π₯)).

M3 Lesson 19 NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM ALGEBRA II 6. Suppose that the inverse of a function is the function itself. For example, the inverse of the function π(π₯) = (for π₯ ≠ 0) is just itself again, π(π₯) = 1 π₯ 1 (for π₯ ≠ 0). What symmetry must the graphs of all such functions have? π₯ (Hint: Study the graph of Exercise 5 in the lesson.) 7. There are two primary scales for measuring daily temperature: degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit. The United States uses the Fahrenheit scale, and many other countries use the Celsius scale. When traveling abroad you will often need to convert between these two temperature scales. Let f be the function that inputs a temperature measure in degrees Celsius, denoted by °C, and outputs the corresponding temperature measure in degrees Fahrenheit, denoted by °F. a. Assuming that π is linear, we can use two points on the graph of π to determine a formula for π. In degrees Celsius, the freezing point of water is 0, and its boiling point is 100. In degrees Fahrenheit, the freezing point of water is 32, and its boiling point is 212. Use this information to find a formula for the function π. (Hint: Plot the points and draw the graph of π first, keeping careful track of the meaning of values on the π₯-axis and π¦-axis.) b. If the temperature in Paris is 25β, what is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit? c. Find the inverse of the function π and explain its meaning in terms of degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius. d. The graphs of π and its inverse π are two lines that intersect in one point. What is that point? What is its significance in terms of degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit? Extension: Use the fact that, for π > 1, the functions π(π₯) = π π₯ and π(π₯) = log π (π₯) are increasing to solve the following problems. Recall that an increasing function π has the property that if both π and π are in the domain of π and π < π, then π(π) < π(π). 1 ? 1,000,000 8. For which values of π₯ is 2π₯ < 9. For which values of π₯ is log 2 (π₯) < −1,000,000?
