How do you find the inverse of a function algebraically?

Switch the x and y variables and then solve for y.

Out of the following: Which factor do you cross out, and which do you set equal to zero?

Vertical asymptotes are set equal to zero, and holes are cancelled out.

y=1/5

500

If you create transformations on a graph y=x2, does the domain and range of the new function change? If yes, why?

The domain never changes, it will always be all real numbers. The range changes based on where the vertex of the parabola is on the graph.
