Question 735552: State the inverse of each relation. Is the inverse a function?
1. {(18, -3), (-13, -10), (-3, 17), (0, -15)}

2. {(5, -11), (-19, -19), (-6, -4), (-3, 8), (-12, 5)}

3. {(-9, -8), (-16, 5), (17, 6), (19, 4), (-8, 9), (-10, -10)}

5. {(-14, -9), (-0, 2), (8, -4), (-5, 6), (-7, -4)}

6. {(-15, -1), (0, -1), (-6, -1), (-16, 3)}

7. g(x) = (4/3)x - 7/3

8. h(x) = (18x + 2)/10

9. f(x) = (2/9)x - 1/9

10. f(x) = (-6x + 2)/5

11. g(x) = (5/8)x - 3/4

12. h(x) = (8x + 9)/8

13. h(x) = (-7/5)x - 1

14. f(x) = (9/8)x + 3/8

15. g(x) = (18x + -36)/30


Are f and g inverses of each other? Give your explanation to support your response.
16. f(x) = (2x + -6)/7
g(x) = (7/2)x + 3


17. f(x) = -(1/5)x + 3/5
g(x) = -5x + 3


18. f(x) = x + 1/2
g(x) = 1x - 1/2

19. f(x) = (63x + 42)/49
g(x) = (7/9)x - 2/5

20. Fahrenheit and Kelvin temperature scales are related by the formula K = 5/9 (F - 32) + 273. Solve this equation for F.

Generally we switch the roles of x and y to find the inverse.

1. {(18, -3), (-13, -10), (-3, 17), (0, -15)}
the inverse:{(-3, 18), (-10, -13), (17, -3), (-15, 0)}
2. {(5, -11), (-19, -19), (-6, -4), (-3, 8), (-12, 5)}
the inverse:{(-11, 5), (-19, -19), (-4, -6), (8, -3), (5, -12)}
3. {(-9, -8), (-16, 5), (17, 6), (19, 4), (-8, 9), (-10, -10)}
the inverse:{(-8, -9), (6, -16), (6, 17), (4, 19), (9, -8), (-10, -10)}

4. {(8, -5), (-4, -14), (16, 12), (-13, 4), (-17, -2), (3, -13)}
the inverse:{(-5, 8), (-14, -4), (12, 16), (4, -13), (-2, -17), (-13, 3)}
5. {(-14, -9), (-0, 2), (8, -4), (-5, 6), (-7, -4)}
the inverse:{(-9, -14), (2, 0), (-4, 8), (6, -5), (-4, -7)}
6. {(-15, -1), (0, -1), (-6, -1), (-16, 3)}
the inverse: {(-1, -15), (-1, 0), (-1, -6), (3, -16)}

Are f and g+inverses of each other? Give your explanation to support your response.
16. f%28x%29+=+%282x+-6%29%2F7 to make sure if f and g+inverses , find inverse of f and see if it is equal to g
or should be f%5E1=g or g%5E1=f
y+=+%282x-6%29%2F7
x+=+%282y-6%29%2F7
7x+=+2y+-6
7x%2B6+=+2y
%287%2F2%29x%2B6%2F2+=+y
%287%2F2%29x%2B3+=+y...this is f%5E1 and as you can see it is equal to
g%28x%29+=+%287%2F2%29x+%2B+3

do same with g%28x%29+=+%287%2F2%29x+%2B+3
y+=+%287%2F2%29x+%2B+3
x+=+%287%2F2%29y+%2B+3
x-3+=+%287%2F2%29y+
%28x-3%29%2F%287%2F2%29=y+
2%28x-3%29%2F7=y+
%282x-6%29%2F7=y+ .......g is equal to f%5E-1

so, f and g+ are inverses of each other

I am sure you will be able to do 17,17, and 19 by yourself
