ONE-TO-ONE FUNCTIONS
The function 𝑓 is one-to-one if
for any 𝑥1 , 𝑥2 in the domain of f,
then 𝑓(𝑥1 ) ≠ 𝑓 𝑥2 . That is, the
same 𝑦-value is never paired
with two different 𝑥-values.
Determine whether the given relation is a function. If
it is a function, determine whether it is one-to-one.

1. The relation pairing an SSS member to his

or her SSS number.
2. The relation pairing a real number to its
square.
3. The relation pairing a person to his or her
citizenship.
Determine whether the given relation is a function. If
it is a function, determine whether it is one-to-one.
4. The relation pairing an airport to its airport code. Airport codes are
three letter codes used to uniquely identify airports around the world and
prominently displayed on checked-in bags to denote the destination of
these bags. Here are some examples of airport codes:
MNL - Ninoy Aquino International Airport (All terminals)
CEB - Mactan-Cebu International Airport
DVO - Francisco Bangoy International Airport (Davao)
JFK - John F. Kennedy International Airport (New York City)
CDG - Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris, France)
Airport codes can be looked up at https://www.world-airport-codes.com
How to determine if the graph is a one-
to-one functions?
Horizontal Line Test
A function is one-to-one if each horizontal line does
not intersect the graph at more than one point.
The Vertical and Horizontal Line Tests
All functions satisfy the vertical line test. All one-to-
one functions satisfy both the vertical and horizontal
line tests.

`INVERTING' FUNCTIONS
•if the x- and y-values of a one-to-one
function are interchanged, the result is a
function, but
• if the x- and y-values of a function that is
not one-to-one are inverted, the result is
no longer a function.
INVERSE OF ONE-TO-ONE FUNCTIONS
TO FIND THE INVERSE OF A ONE-
TO-ONE FUNCTION,
(a) write the function in the form y = f(x);
(b) interchange the x and y variables;
(c) solve for y in terms of x.
Example: Find the inverse of the ff.:
1. f(x) = 3x + 1. 2.

PROCEDURE FOR SOLVING
RATIONAL INEQUALITIES:
To solve rational inequalities:
(a)rewrite the inequality as a single
rational expression on one side of
the inequality symbol and 0 on the
other side.
PROCEDURE FOR SOLVING RATIONAL INEQUALITIES:
(b)Determine over what intervals the rational expression
takes on positive and negative values.
i. Locate the x values for which
the rational expression is zero or
undefined (factoring the numerator
and denominator is a useful
strategy).
PROCEDURE FOR SOLVING RATIONAL INEQUALITIES:
(b)Determine over what intervals the rational expression
takes on positive and negative values.
ii. Mark the numbers found in (i) on a
number line. Use a shaded circle to
indicate that the value is included in the
solution set, and a hollow circle to
indicate that the value is excluded.
These numbers partition the number line
into intervals.
PROCEDURE FOR SOLVING RATIONAL INEQUALITIES:
(b)Determine over what intervals the rational expression
takes on positive and negative values.

. Select a test point within the

iii
interior of each interval in (ii). The
sign of the rational expression at
this test point is also the sign of the
rational expression at each interior
point in the aforementioned interval.
