Final answer:

To plot the inverse of a function, swap the x and y values and plot the resulting points for quadratic, cubic, exponential, and logarithmic functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

To plot the inverse of a function, you need to swap the roles of the dependent and independent variables. This means that if a point (x, y) is on the original function, then the corresponding point on the inverse function is (y, x). You can plot the inverse of a quadratic, cubic, exponential, or logarithmic function by swapping the x and y values and plotting the resulting points.

  • Quadratic Function: If the quadratic function is y = ax^2 + bx + c, the inverse function is x = ay^2 + by + c.
  • Cubic Function: If the cubic function is y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d, the inverse function is x = ay^3 + by^2 + cy + d.
  • Exponential Function: If the exponential function is y = a * b^x, the inverse function is x = logb(y/a).
  • Logarithmic Function: If the logarithmic function is y = logb(ax), the inverse function is x = by/a.
