Step 1:
\The functions are
and
A function
is the inverse of the function
if
for each
in the domain of
.
and
for each
in the domain of
.

Step 2:
\
Since
, the functions
and
are inverse functions.
Step 3:
\Graph the two functions.
\Choose random values for
and find the corresponding values for
.

Step 4:
\Graph:
\Draw the coordinate plane.
\Plot the points of

Plot the points of
and connect the curve.
Observe the graph:
and
have reflective property.
Solution:
\
and
are inverse functions.
