Determine whether the given function is onetoone If it is on
Determine whether the given function is one-to-one. If it is one-to-one, find a formula for the inverse. f(x) = squareroot x - 7 f^-1(x) = squareroot x + 7 f^-1(x) = x^2 + 7, x greaterthanorequalto 0 Not one-to-one f^-1(x) = (x - 7)^2
Solution
f(x)=sqrt(x-7)
here for every value of x we have a value for y so its one to one.
Lets find the inverse
first we have to write f(x)=y and then switch x and y
y=sqrt(x-7)
x=sqrt(y-7)
x^2=y-7
y=x^+ 7, x>=0
