We can compose functions by making the output of one function the input of another one. This simple-yet-rich idea opens up a world of fascinating applications. Inverse functions undo each other when …

For example, in physics, we might use a composite function to model the motion of a falling object. In economics, we might use an inverse function to model the relationship between supply and demand.

This unit explores how functions interact through composition and inversion. You'll learn how to find and represent inverse functions, restrict domains to ensure functionality, and use compositions to verify …

Discover the answers with interactive articles, activities, and videos that teach you about composite and inverse functions in precalculus and their applications in various fields.

Learn how to verify whether two functions are inverses by composing them. For example, are f (x)=5x-7 and g (x)=x/5+7 inverse functions? This article includes a lot of function composition. If you need a …

Sal composes f (x)= (x+7)³-1 and g (x)=∛ (x+1)-7, and finds that f (g (x))=g (f (x))=x, which means the functions are inverses!

This is an exceptionally useful rule, as it opens up a whole world of functions (and equations!) we can now differentiate. Also learn how to use all the different derivative rules together in a thoughtful and …

This topic covers: - Evaluating functions - Domain & range of functions - Graphical features of functions - Average rate of change of functions - Function combination and composition - Function …

Inverse? Composite? No problem! Get into a 1/x state of mind as we apply differentiation to complex functions, including inverse functions and composite functions.
