Yes, what you do is imagine the function "reflected" across the x=y line. Which is to say you imagine it flipped over and 'laying on its side".

Functions have only one value of y for each value of x. That would not be the case for a "flipped over" quadratic function

What function is the inverse of a quadratic function?

If the quadratic function is f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c then its inverse isf'(x) = [-b + +/- sqrt{b^2 - 4*(c - x)}]/(2a)


When can a quadratic function have an inverse?

It depends on the domain and codomain. In complex numbers, that is, when the domain and codomain are both C, every quadratic always has an inverse.If the range of the quadratic in the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 is the set of real numbers, R, then the function has an inverse if(a) b2 - 4ac ≥ 0and(b) the range of the inverse is defined as x ≥ 0 or x ≤ 0


What is the relationships between inverse functions?

The inverse of the inverse is the original function, so that the product of the two functions is equivalent to the identity function on the appropriate domain. The domain of a function is the range of the inverse function. The range of a function is the domain of the inverse function.


How do you find the additive inverse of a quadratic equation?

Change all the signs. Suppose you have the quadratic equation: y = ax2 + bx + c Its additive inverse is -ax2 - bx - c.
