How to find the inverse of a linear function

12th - Higher Ed
👉 Learn how to find the inverse of a linear function. A linear function is a function whose highest exponent in the variable(s) is 1. The inverse of a function is a function that reverses the "effect" of the original function. One...

Function Inverses 3

10th - 12th
Sal continues showing examples of finding the inverse of the function. Here, he shows a subtle but essential technique of taking the negative square root of each side of the equation when solving for the inverse because of the...

Function Inverses Example 1

10th - 12th
Sal continues looking at function inverses in this video by showing two examples. In each example, he finds the inverse and shows the graph of both functions. His examples are with linear functions, but his first example shows a function...

Function Inverses Example 2

10th - 12th
Sal shows an example of finding the inverse of the parabola with a restricted domain. He alludes to a reason behind the restricted domain but leaves the listener to determine it.

Introduction to Function Inverses, Functions and Their Graphs, Algebra II

10th - 12th
Starting from a brief look at functions and the mapping of domains to ranges, Sal starts with an intuitive sense of what a function inverse is. Using an example, he then shows how to find the inverse of a function and how the graph of...

Khan Academy: Linear Algebra: Invertibility Implies a Unique Solution to F(x)=y

9th - 10th Standards
Video first reviews what it means for a function to be invertible. Shows that if a function is invertible then there is a unique solution to f(x) = y. Also shows that if there is a unique solution to the equation f(x) = y for all y then...
