Can anyone solve this question please

The ordered pair (1,7)belongs to some function,f(x). Explain why the ordered pair(8,1) cannot belong to the inverse of this function.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

by definition : The inverse of a relation consisting of points of the form (x,y) is the set of points (y,x)

if (1,7) is a point belong to f(x), then the inverse has to be (7,1) not (8,1)

Ordered pair[tex](8, 1)[/tex] cannot belong to the inverse of the given function because ordered pair [tex](7,1).[/tex]belong to the inverse function of the given function.

What is inverse function?

" Inverse  function is defined as when the domain and range of a function interchange with each other of the given function. It is represented by[tex]y = g(x)[/tex]then its inverse is [tex]x = f(y)[/tex]"

According to the question,

Given function,

Function[tex]f(x)[/tex] with ordered pair [tex](1,7)[/tex]

Domain of a function[tex]= 1[/tex]

Range of a function [tex]= 7[/tex]

As per the definition of inverse function,

Domain of inverse function [tex]= 7[/tex]

Range of a inverse function [tex]= 1[/tex]

Ordered pair[tex](7, 1)[/tex] belongs to inverse of the given function.

Hence, ordered pair[tex](8, 1)[/tex] cannot belong to the inverse of the given function.
