What does gf(x)g \circ f(x) equal?

g(f(x))g(f(x))

In gfg \circ f, which function is applied first?

ff is applied first, then gg

Domain requirement for gfg \circ f to be defined

Range of ff must be in domain of gg

What does an inverse function do?

Reverses the action of the original function

Requirement for function to have inverse

Must be one-to-one

Definition of one-to-one function

Different inputs give different outputs

Domain of f1f^{-1} equals what?

Range of ff

Strictly increasing: if a>ba > b then?

f(a)>f(b)f(a) > f(b)

Strictly decreasing: if a>ba > b then?

f(a)<f(b)f(a) < f(b)

If ff is strictly increasing, what about f1f^{-1}?

f1f^{-1} is also strictly increasing
