Exercise 12 Page 267

Find points on the graph with integer coordinates.

Practice makes perfect

To graph the inverse of a relation, we need to identify points on the given graph and then find the inverse of these points. Since the graph is not labeled, we will assume that each grid line represents 1 unit.

We can find the inverses of these points by exchanging the x- and y-coordinates.

Given Points Inverse Points
( - 3, - 2) ( - 2, - 3)
( 0, - 1) ( - 1, 0)
( 3, 0) ( 0, 3)

The line connecting the inverse points represents the inverse of the relation.
