Horizontal
line test |
A
function f
has an inverse if no horizontal line intersects the graph of
f
more than once. |
If
any horizontal line intersects the graph of f
more than once, then f
does not have an inverse. |
A
mapping associating a unique member of the codomain with every
member of the domain of a function is called one to one
correspondence. |
A
function f
is one-to-one if and only if f
has an inverse. |
Given
f
(x)
= x2 + y0
and,
since f
[f
-1(x)]
= x |
therefore, f
[f
-1(x)]
= [f
-1(x)]2
+ x0
= x, or
[f
-1(x)]2
= x -
x0
|
then |

|
To find the
y-intercept,
set x
= 0 and solve for y, that is, |
