  1. What is the proper way to find the inverse of a function?

    4 I am a little confused on the subject of inverse functions and the methods used to do the transformation from function to inverse. How do you make an inverse?

  2. Purpose of Inverse Functions - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Nov 27, 2016 · Finding inverse functions and understanding their properties is fairly basic within mathematics. During my studies it was found fairly simple and easy to comprehend that it was a …

  3. Alternative notation for inverse function - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Feb 23, 2018 · An exception is the present wide acceptance of arccos arccos, arcsin arcsin, and so on for the inverse trigonometric and hyperbolic-trigonometric functions, in place of cos−1 cos 1. sin−1 …

  4. Can the inverse of a function be the same as the original function?

    Oct 28, 2013 · The inverse for a function of x x is just the same function flipped over the diagonal line x = y x = y (where y = f(x) y = f (x)). So, if you graph a function, and it looks like it mirrors itself across the …

  5. education - how to see the logarithm as the inverse function of the ...

    The functions loga(x) log a (x) and ax a x are clearly inverses of each other. The domain of logarithm base a a is all positive numbers and range is all real numbers. Using the fact that the domain and …

  6. Prove that if an inverse function exists, then it is unique.

    Mar 15, 2017 · I have been trying to solve this proof for some time in preparation for a test, though I'm not sure if I am going about this the correct way. Prove that if an inverse function exists, then it is u...

  7. calculus - What are some real world applications of the Inverse ...

    Nov 8, 2019 · So while it is very difficult/tedious (or impossible to do by hand) to compute the "general formula" for the inverse of the function in question, a careful application of the inverse function …

  8. algebra precalculus - Functions that are their own inverse ...

    Jul 11, 2015 · It's trivial to come up with examples of functions which are their own inverse with sets of size two (and they no longer have to have the form f(x) = x --which certainly always satisfies this …

  9. Why is being onto necessary for a function to have inverse?

    Mar 5, 2016 · To make a long story short, you do not need surjectivity for the inverse of a function to be a function (only injectivity is needed). You do need surjectivity to specify the domain of the inverse …

  10. Inverse of a function's integral - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Oct 7, 2015 · The function $g$ is strictly positive. Let the function $f$ be defined as $$f(x) = \\int_0^x g(u) du$$ Is there a way to express $f^{-1}(x)$ in terms of $g$?
