    9 years later, and this is still the most useful video on this topic. So many others focus on how the formula is derived and use a generic function to prove it. That's all well and good, but doesn't come close to helping Calc students understand how to use it and solve HW/test questions. Thank you.

  • @yipyiphooray339
    @yipyiphooray339 2 года назад +1

    Thank you for this video! Though im kind of confused for this type of question:
    Find (f^-1)'(a), if f(x) = x^3 + 2x + 3, and a = 0. Over here I tried applied the concepts of inverse functions where you can say that if f^-1(0) = a. Then f(a) = 0. However, it got me some decimal answer and I had to do some things that I'm not sure are allowed by the professors.

    • @jampottery2745
      @jampottery2745 2 года назад

      Honestly you could just guess and check because i got (-1,0) on f(x) therefore (f^-1)(0) = -1 and plug that into 1/f’(f^-1(x))

  • @DominikZazoBitcoinovaSkola
    @DominikZazoBitcoinovaSkola 4 месяца назад +1

    wait, but is is not 1to1 function. It fails horizontal test, right?

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  4 месяца назад

      It should be 1:1 since the derivative of f is always positive. Since f' is always positive, f is always increasing and therefore, 1:1.

    • @dominikzazo7838
      @dominikzazo7838 4 месяца назад

      Correct me please: x² is parabolic function, therefore it cannot pass horizontal test, because there are 2 interceptions

  • @slightlyscottishzarzoo8332
    @slightlyscottishzarzoo8332 2 года назад +1

    Do you always have to plug in a zero?

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  2 года назад

      No, but it zero is an easy number to try though! Then I try 1, -1, etc. If the numbers get too crazy then you can use a calculator to find out when the function equals a particular value.

  • @pigeonlove
    @pigeonlove 7 лет назад +1

    what is the explanation/rule of the 'we need' box? the derivative of the inverse of the function of x is the inverse of the derivative of the inverse of function x ?

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  7 лет назад +1

      If you want an explanation of the rule, you need to start with f( f^-1(x)) = x (definition of the inverse function). Take the derivative of both sides (Chain Rule on the left) and then divide to solve for the derivative of the inverse function.

  • @najlaenadi5353
    @najlaenadi5353 6 лет назад +1

    thank u teacher for sharing .. it was very helpfulll. but my question is can we just derivate the inverse function normaly just like any normale functio then plug in the 4 number ?

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  6 лет назад

      Yes that is an option. However, for many examples they will give you a function where you cannot find the inverse function algebraically.

  • @peterstrachan9183
    @peterstrachan9183 5 лет назад

    why don't we use the formula g'(y) = 1/f'(x) If f(x) = y the inverse is g(y) = x eg. g( 2x^3 + 3x^2 +7x +4) = x it follows g(4) = 0 so f'(0) = 7 or
    g'(4) = 1/7 Cool

  • @Jadevhn
    @Jadevhn 7 лет назад +1

    uhmm... i got confused. we are talking about INVERSE FUNCTION, it means f(x)=y and we should switch y for x then solve for y to have inverse function, then, we will take f' (y), finally, we will place 4 to the function we got. Is that right?

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  7 лет назад +2

      Yes.. But in cases where the function is difficult to separate, we can make use of this formula.. The formula can be proved by applying the Chain Rule to the definition of the inverse function.

    • @Jadevhn
      @Jadevhn 7 лет назад

      vinteachesmath I see. Thank you very much!

    • @kevinlohier848
      @kevinlohier848 6 лет назад

      The problem is that it s hard to take the inverse of such functions. What you have to do in those cases is to plug numbers until you find h(x)= the x value you re differentiating the function at... Then consider it as a y value for h(x)-1.
