    One-To-One Functions, Horizontal Line Test and Finding The Inverse Functions of Equations

    Uploaded by

    Laurence Abanilla
    This document discusses one-to-one functions, the horizontal line test, and finding inverse functions from equations. It provides examples of determining if a relation is a function and if it is one-to-one using the horizontal line test. It also gives examples of finding the inverse of functions by interchanging x and y in the original equation and solving for y.

    ONE-TO-ONE FUNCTIONS,

    HORIZONTAL LINE TEST


    and FINDING THE INVERSE
    FUNCTIONS OF EQUATIONS
    One-to-One Function
    •  •
    The function is one-to-one if for any in the domain
    of f, then f(x1)  f(x2). That is, the same -value is
    never paired with two different -values.
    In Examples 1-4, determine whether the given relation
    is a function. If it is a function, determine whether it is
    one-to-one or not.
    •Example 1. The relation pairing an SSS member to
    his or her SSS number.
    Solution. Each SSS member is assigned to a unique
    SSS number. Thus, the relation is a function. Further,
    two different members cannot be assigned the same
    SSS number. Thus, the function is one-to-one.
    •Example 2. The relation pairing a real number
    to its square.
    • Solution. Each real number has a unique perfect
    square. Thus, the relation is a function.
    However, two different real numbers such as 2
    and –2 may have the same square.
    •Example 3. The relation pairing a person
    to his or her citizenship.
    • Solution. The relation is not a function
    because a person can have dual citizenship
    (i.e., citizenship is not unique).
    • Example 4. The relation pairing a distance d (in
    kilometers) traveled along a given jeepney route
    to the jeepney fare for traveling that distance.
    • Solution. The relation is a function since each
    distance traveled along a given jeepney route has
    an official fare.
    Horizontal Line Test
    •Horizontal line test is a visual test for determining
    whether a function
    is one-to-one. A function is one-to-one if and only if
    no horizontal line crosses its graph more than once.
    Prepare the table of values x and y and construct the graph of the function.

    •Example
      1: f (x) =
    x -2 - 0 1 2
    1
    f (x) or y 4 1 0 1 4
    x -2 -1 0 1 2

    f (x) or y 4 1 0 1 4
     Example 2: f(x) = for x ≥ 0
    •  Table of Values for f(x) =

    x 0 1 2 3 4

    f (x) or y 0 1 4 9 16
    x 0 1 2 3 4

    f (x) or 0 1 4 9 16
    y
    Finding the Inverse Functions from
    Equations
    •To find the inverse of a one-to-one
    function, we interchange x and y in the
    formula; then solve the new formula for
    y to undo what the original function did.
    This method is called switched-and
    -solve strategy.
    a.) f (x) = 3x + 1
     b.) g (x) =
