Assignment 2: Inverse Functions

For the following functions make a table from x=-4 to x=+4 and then a graph:

1. y = 1/x

2. y = 3/x

3. y = 1/x^2

4. y = 6 / x^3

5. y = -1 / x^2

6. y = 0.5/x

7. What does increasing the number on the top of the fraction do to the shape of the function?

8. What is the difference between even and odd powered functions?

9. How does a negative change the look of an even inverse function?

10. How does a negative change the look of an odd inverse function?
