12 - What are Inverse Functions? (Part 1) - Find the Inverse of a Function & Graph

More Lessons: www.MathAndScie...
Twitter: / jasongibsonmath
In this lesson, you will learn what an inverse function is and why inverse functions are useful in Math, Algebra, Calculus, and beyond. An inverse of a function is the function that does the opposite operation. Because of this, the inverse "undoes" what the original function calculates. This can be used to solve many types of equations, most notably exponential and logarithmic equations. The inverse function also has many uses in Calculus in the study of derivatives.

I am 65 now. If I had a math teacher like you at 15, my life story would have been different. Everyday I take time out, sit with a pen and paper, watch your video, take note like a high school/ college student and enrich myself. Thanks and respect 🙏🙏 from the bottom of my heart from India.

Your comment touched me! Wish I could have coffee or tea with you! Take care and thank you!

You are the best math teacher on KZbin. There are some great math teachers and courses out there, but for me, you are by far the best. The way you explain concepts and walk your student through the process is astounding. You're a very gifted teacher. I will be taking math courses up to Linear Algebra (starting from PreCal, Cal I-III, and then Linear Algebra) to enter a data science/analytics or applied statistics graduate program in roughly three years. I purchased a monthly subscription to your website and have found your videos to be the best. Thank you very much for everything you do.

So happy you liked it! Jason, MathAndScience.com

[@yasinkhan1500]

You are an excellent teacher I must say, thorougly enjoyed the whole video, very clear in explaining things which is very easy to understand and digest. Please continue with your good work it will help so many students.

This video on inverse functions is fascinating! Reminds me of what I've been doing with my rubies cube. I've discovered some pattern algorithms that undo themselves when repeated and combining them sequentially is exactly as you describe in inverse functions. I've been calling what I am doing solution processing. Calling it this makes more sense for accuracy. Oh one major pattern in using requires me to flip the cube prior to repeating the algorithm else I get a pattern one of three, requiring three time repeats.

[@pamtechzambia627]

You make things simple. You make remember my lecturer in college, Mr Makubalo in Zambia

[@khoinguyen0210]

You are on another level with explaining math . Many thanks !

[@dennisrendfrey5636]

Thank You!! I started with your dvd's Algebra 2 tutor, plus Trig and pre calculus tutor. I'm on my extended spring break because of the corona virus. This is helping me get ready for my (Home Schooling) starting next week. I'm in pre calculus in college, majoring in math. Your courses have helped me succeed with my math studies.

[@tresajessygeorge210]

THANK YOU... SIR...!!!

[@timd3519]

I love these videos, but why is it that they don’t pop up in order even though I can go find them in playlists in your channel? For instance if I’m watching a professor Leonard video I can click the playlist that pops up and get right into the playlist at the video I’m watching but the video after this one is atomic theory.

[@abhisvarasinha404]

Where can I find the part 2 video for this class?

[@nandakumarcheiro]

Exponential functions inversing producing spiral logarithm responsible for formation of galaxies by photometric condensation as well as in neutrino emissions giving more informations by coordinating with Lambert function .Thank you sir. Sankaravelayudhan Nandakumar.

[@kenlamb5697]

Very good presentation. One tough part of teaching math is how many times things have to be repeated to get the concept to sink in. The only thing I would add is the bonus of where the graphs intersect and what that means.

[@ifeoluwapopoolaafonrinwofi638]

thank you so much i am in college and I still get them confuse.your video is a blessing

[@pattiquedesigns5645]

👉🏽 A very brilliant educator.Thank you, sir.

Awww thanks!

[@rosepierce9382]

12:19 It hurts my soul to see fractions getting a lot of hate all over the world. They're actually really beautiful creatures when we get to know them better.

[@ariseeber248]

My math homework went from pretty confusing to trivial after I had the chance to enjoy your great, thorough explanation of this concept. Thank you for the help! My one question is, where's part two??

[@doncally]

You are an excellent teacher.

[@chijiokejohnpaul3390]

Simply the best Thank you v much

[@mostonphiri2756]

You are great and inspiring above all you know what you are doing

[@felinefriend6101]

if everyone taught as you do we jn canada would not be math illiterate i teach myself. i rarely give rules. i encourage derivation of rules instead. doing so affords a deeper understanding . That is exactly how you teach & I as a recipient feel so much more in control😊

[@elc3can]

Thank you teacher 😃

[@guliyevshahriyar]

Thanks teacher.

thank you. This video is veerrrrry goood

[@AcousticBruce]

What a wonderful teacher!

[@natewhite2112]

At 29:10 you said if you put a negative 3 in f(x) = 1/2x + 2, and you do the math you're gonna get a 1/2 out, but I got a minus 1/2 out, Can you tell me what I did wrong?

[@Hiiiiiiii_7789]

thanks for help. I'm Bsc maths , If you would teach I would go more degree

[@lowersaxon]

This is very good.

[@sagar_va]

I have a question, When you say it has to pass the H.L.T to have an inverse function, does that mean quadratic equations will never have an inverse or an inverse function?

[@YvetteAisha-u9w]

❤thank you so much Now my brain exploded😅

[@Yeshana]

Excellent

[@nandakumarcheiro]

Refering the life line of palm print is reflected as mirror image of genetic immunity strengthen this life line the point at which the health line cuts through life line rather healing the defect.We have discussed much with Nobel Laureate Moser at different occasions.Thank you sir Sankaravelayudhan Nandakumar.

Hi Prof. Couldn't find 2nd part of this ? can you help please?

[@Waquike]

First thanks for the tutorial online. I have a DVD ”the ultimate physics tutor “I bought online a long time ago, it helped my trough physics. My question is : can the 45 degrees angle chance or it is always 45 degrees?

[@sabitusani2644]

Sir I'm thankful

[@cteo1835]

Good!

[@LeFruFru]

I am wondering where this video sits within your course list??

[@abdouliejanneh5548]

Wish you more win sir

[@AmooFilly]

Honestly I don't understand where the plotted values are being got from Some explanation

[@brandonmarr3395]

Can anyone tell me what playlist this is on on this channel. Even better if you can tell me how to find out what playlist it is in. Thanks!

[@krunal740]

Didn't understand graph why you took -ve value in plotting graph

[@nawaf_ksa0]

Thx

[@RubberDuckyToy]

Great lecture as usual. When will this be posted at the member section and under what unit of Algebra 2 Course will this be posted? The most recent one is unit 11. So, my guess is this would be like unit 15?

[@MathAndScience]

I'm not totally sure when it will be posted at www.MathAndScience.com. It will be in unit 15 though - good guess. It takes a while to get all lessons from a unit ready and that is why you see things on youtube for free before seeing them in the members area. It will come to the members area, complete with worksheets and quizzes as well! Jason
