OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any vertical parabola is not a one-to-one function.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

click my attatchment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just look at the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, it is a concave downward parabola.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do i do??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first i have to put the inverse of this equation , so do i just flip around the numerator and denominator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o pellet i posted the wrong question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lemme post the right one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why do you need to do that? it just comes from the definition of on-to-one function.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohk, fine..i get it first of all, find the inverse of the function.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, and do i do that by just swapping the numerator and denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or switching the signs ... or both?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y=\frac{ x }{ -4-9x }\] the above equation is y in terms of x. solve for x in terms of y.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1372883553944:dw| now interchange x and y. what do you get?
