Solutions to Odd-Numbered Exercises

1. Each output of a function must have exactly one output for the function to be one-to-one. If any horizontal line crosses the graph of a function more than once, that means that [latex]y[/latex] -values repeat and the function is not one-to-one. If no horizontal line crosses the graph of the function more than once, then no [latex]y[/latex] -values repeat and the function is one-to-one.

3. Yes. For example, [latex]f\left(x\right)=\frac{1}{x}\\[/latex] is its own inverse.

5. Given a function [latex]y=f\left(x\right)[/latex], solve for [latex]x[/latex] in terms of [latex]y[/latex]. Interchange the [latex]x[/latex] and [latex]y[/latex]. Solve the new equation for [latex]y[/latex]. The expression for [latex]y[/latex] is the inverse, [latex]y={f}^{-1}\left(x\right)[/latex].

7. [latex]{f}^{-1}\left(x\right)=x - 3[/latex]

9. [latex]{f}^{-1}\left(x\right)=2-x[/latex]

11. [latex]{f}^{-1}\left(x\right)=\frac{-2x}{x - 1}\\[/latex]

13. domain of [latex]f\left(x\right):\left[-7,\infty \right);{f}^{-1}\left(x\right)=\sqrt{x}-7[/latex]

15. domain of [latex]f\left(x\right):\left[0,\infty \right);{f}^{-1}\left(x\right)=\sqrt{x+5}\\[/latex]

45. [latex]{f}^{-1}\left(x\right)=\frac{5}{9}\left(x - 32\right)\\[/latex]. Given the Fahrenheit temperature, [latex]x[/latex], this formula allows you to calculate the Celsius temperature.

47. [latex]t\left(d\right)=\frac{d}{50}\\[/latex], [latex]t\left(180\right)=\frac{180}{50}\\[/latex]. The time for the car to travel 180 miles is 3.6 hours.
