Each of the toolkit functions has an inverse. See
[link] .
For a function to have an inverse, it must be one-to-one (pass the horizontal line test).
A function that is not one-to-one over its entire domain may be one-to-one on part of its domain.
For a tabular function, exchange the input and output rows to obtain the inverse. See
[link] .
The inverse of a function can be determined at specific points on its graph. See
[link] .
To find the inverse of a formula, solve the equation
for
as a function of
Then exchange the labels

The graph of an inverse function is the reflection of the graph of the original function across the line

Describe why the horizontal line test is an effective way to determine whether a function is one-to-one?
Each output of a function must have exactly one output for the function to be one-to-one. If any horizontal line crosses the graph of a function more than once, that means that
-values repeat and the function is not one-to-one. If no horizontal line crosses the graph of the function more than once, then no
-values repeat and the function is one-to-one.
For the following exercises, find a domain on which each function
is one-to-one and non-decreasing. Write the domain in interval notation. Then find the inverse of
restricted to that domain.
Astronomy (from Ancient Greek ἀστρονομία (astronomía) 'science that studies the laws of the stars') is a natural science that studies celestial objects and phenomena. It uses mathematics, physics, and chemistry in order to explain their origin and evolution.

what is big bang theory?
Rosemary
what type of activity astronomer do?
Rosemary
No
Richard
the big bang theory is a theory which states that all matter was compressed together in one place the matter got so unstable it exploded releasing All its contents in the form of hydrogen
according to the theory of astronomers why the moon is always appear in an elliptical orbit?

hi !!! I am new in astronomy....
I have so many questions in mind ....
all of scientists of the word they just give opinion only.
but they never think true or false ...
i respect all of them...
I believes whole universe depending
on true ...থিউরি

hello

hi
Elyana
we're all stars and galaxies a part of sun. how can science prove thx with respect old ancient times picture or books..or anything with respect to present time .but we r a part of that universe
there many theory to born universe but what is the reality of big bang theory to born universe
Asmit
what is the exact value of π?
Nagalakshmi
by big bang
universal
there are many theories regarding this it's on you believe any theory that you think is true ex. eternal inflation theory, oscillation model theory, multiple universe theory the big bang theory etc.

I think after Big Bang!

from where on earth could u observe all the stars during the during the course of an year
is that so. the question was in the end of this chapter
Karuna
in theory, you could see them all from the equator (though over the course of a year, not at pne time). stars are measured in "declination", which is how far N or S of the equator (90* to -90*). Polaris is the North star, and is ALMOST 90* (+89*).
So it would just barely creep over the horizon.
