True or False?

Question

The inverse of y=x^2 is a function.

Answer 1

The original function (y = x²) fails the horizontal line test, thus its inverse relation will NOT be a function.

You can see that for any positive value of y, there are *two* values of x that will result in that value (namely a negative and a positive value). So the inverse relation (y = ±√x) is NOT a function.

Answer:

False

Answer 2

It depends on why ur name is Mikan lol
