Consider the functions given by \(f(x)=x+2\) and \(f^{-1}(x)=x-2 .\) Evaluate \(f\left(f^{-1}(x)\right)\) and \(f^{-1}(f(x))\) for the indicated values of \(x .\) What can you conclude about the functions? $$ \begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline x & -10 & 0 & 7 & 45 \\ \hline f\left(f^{-1}(x)\right) & & & & \\ \hline f^{-1}(f(x)) & & & & \\ \hline \end{array} $$
The function given by \(f(x)=k\left(2-x-x^{3}\right)\) has an inverse function, and \(f^{-1}(3)=-2 .\) Find \(k\).
Use the given value of \(k\) to complete the table for the direct variation model $$y=k x^{2}$$ Plot the points on a rectangular coordinate system. $$\begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline x & 2 & 4 & 6 & 8 & 10 \\ \hline y=k x^{2} & & & & & \\ \hline \end{array}$$ $$ k=\frac{1}{2} $$
Determine whether the function has an inverse function. If it does, find the inverse function. $$ f(x)=\frac{1}{x^{2}} $$
Use Hooke's Law for springs, which states that the distance a spring is stretched (or compressed) varies directly as the force on the spring. The coiled spring of a toy supports the weight of a child. The spring is compressed a distance of 1.9 inches by the weight of a 25 -pound child. The toy will not work properly if its spring is compressed more than 3 inches. What is the weight of the heaviest child who should be allowed to use the toy?
