One-to-One FunctionsA function f(x) is one-to-one if
f(a) ≠ f(b) whenever a ≠ b.Must pass horizontal line test.

InversesIf a function is one-to-one, then it
has an inverse.◦Notation: f-1(x)◦IMPORTANT:

InversesTo find the inverse of a function,
solve for x, “swap” x and y, and solve for y.
Ex: What is the inverse of f(x) = -2x + 4?
y = -2x + 4y – 4 = -2x

InversesInverse functions are symmetric
(reflected) about the line y = x.Therefore, in order for two
functions to be inverses, the results of the composites is x.

Logarithmsy = logax means ay = x
◦Ex: log381 = 4 means 34 = 81
What is the inverse of y = logax?Since y = logax is ay = x, then the inverse has to beax = y

LogarithmsCommon logarithms:
log x means log10x
ln x means logex

of e)53 tex (e and ln are inverses and “undo”
each other.)

ExampleSarah invests $1000 in an account that
earns 5.25% interest compounded annually. How long will it take the account to reach $2500?t)0525.01(10002500
t)0525.1(5.2 (divide both sides by 1000)
t)0525.1ln()5.2ln( (take a log of both sides…doesn’t matter what base you use!!!)
)0525.1ln()5.2ln( t (by my property, exponent comes out front)
)0525.1ln(
)5.2ln(t (divide by ln(1.0525))t ≈ 17.907
