Chapter 3: One-to-one and Inverse Functions

Content Standard Performance Standard


Key concepts of inverse function Apply the concepts of inverse function to
formulate and solve real-life problems with
precision and accuracy.

A. Learner Outline

After you read this module, you will be able to:


1. Represent real-life situations using one-to-one functions
2. Determine the inverse of a one-to-one function
3. Represent an inverse function through its: (a) table of values (b) graph and (c) equation
4. Find the domain and range of inverse function
5. Graph inverse functions

B. Module
1. Eliciting prior Knowledge
Given an illustration below, can we say that there is a unique pairing in the domain and the
range? ____

2. Introduction

In Chapter 1, functions described as mapping of its domain to its range. A relation is one-to-
one if and only if each element of the domain corresponds to a unique element in its range, and
each element in its range corresponds to a unique element in its domain.

C. Module
The following real-life situations illustrate important type of functions- the one-to-one function:

1. Every student in the class has a unique thumb print and each thumb print belongs to exactly
one person.

2.Every human being has a unique DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule, and every existing DNA
molecule is unique to a human being. In other words, no two individuals has exactly the same
DNA molecule

3. Every family member eats his/her own food, and each quantity of food belongs to exactly one
person.

4. In a medical clinic, each patient is assigned a different appointment slot and each slot is
assigned to only one patient.
Activity 1:
Identify if the given shows one-to-one function or not. Write (/) if it is one-to-one, otherwise (x).

1. the students and their school IDs


2. the cars in Metro Manila and their license plate numbers
3. {(2,1), (3,1), (4,1)}

Consider the functions y= 2x2 and y= 2x3 whose table of values and graphs are given below.

X -2 -1 0 1 2
y= 2x2 8 2 0 2 8

y= 2x2
X -2 -1 0 1 2
y= 2x3 -16 -2 0 2 16

y= 2x3

Observe in the table of values that in the function y= 2x2. Is there a unique pairing
in the domain and the range?

The horizontal line test is used to


determine whether function is one-to-
one function, when its graph is given. In
this test, a function f is one-to-one when
every horizontal line drawn intersects
the graph f at exactly one point.

y= 2x2

y= 2x2

On the other hand, every horizontal line intersects the graph of


y= 2x at exactly one point; hence the function is a one-to-one
function.
INVERSE FUNCTION

Consider the table of values for the function given by the equation y= 2x-1 given below:

x -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4
y -9 -7 -5 -3 -1 1 3 5 7
A one-to-one function? ______

Let us invert the values of x and y:

x -9 -7 -5 -3 -1 1 3 5 7
y -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4
Does this table represent a function? _______

Next consider the table of values for another function below:

x -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4
y -1 -1 -1 -1 0 1 1 1 1
A one-to-one function? ________

Invert the values for x and y. Will the resulting table still represent a function?

x -1 -1 -1 -1 0 1 1 1 1
y -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4
The resulting table does not represent a function since x = 1 is paired with more than one y-value;
namely, 1, 2, 3 and 4.

A function has an inverse if and only if it is


one-to-one. `Inverting' the x- and y-values
of a function results in a function if and only

Big Idea if the original function is one-to-one.

To find the inverse of a one-to-one function,


1. write the function in the form y = f(x);
2. interchange the x and y variables;
3. solve for y in terms of x.

EXAMPLE 1. Find the inverse of f(x) = 3x + 1.


Solution.
The equation of the function is y = 3x + 1.
Interchange the x and y variables: x = 3y + 1
Solve for y in terms of x:
x = 3y + 1

x−1 = 3y

x−1 x−1
=y⇒y=
3 3
x−1
Therefore, the inverse of f(x) = 3x + 1 is f−1(x) = .

EXAMPLE 2. Find the inverse of f(x) = 2x - 7.


Solution.
The equation of the function is y = 2x - 7.
Interchange the x and y variables: x = 2y - 7.
x = 2y -7

x + 7 = 2y

x+7 x+7
=y⇒y=
2 2
x+7
Therefore, the inverse of f(x) = 2x -7 is f−1(x) = .

SUMMARY:

A function f is a one-to-one function if and only if every value in the range corresponds to exactly one
value in the domain. Every one-to-one function has a unique inverse function.

To find the inverse of a one-to-one function, first, write the function in the form y = f(x). Interchange the
x and y variables then solve for y in terms of x.
