\n" ); document.write( "To find the inverse, interchange the positions of \"G\" and \"T\" and solve for the new \"G\".
\n" ); document.write( "The new \"G\" is the inverse.

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The domain is all values of \"T\" where \"G%28T%29\" is defined. The only problem is when the denominator equals zero since division by zero is undefined.
