The Inverse of F(x) is a function. True or False.

OpenStudy (hlares):

True. For example: if we have the function y=4x+2, then the inverse will be x=(y-2)/4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you! i appreciate this example as well!

Directrix (directrix):

False. Consider the function y = x^2. If it had an inverse, it would look like x = y*2 with y = +/- sqrt(x) If x were 4, y would equal 2 or -2 which violates the rule for a function. @ashwhitton19
