Identify domain restrictions algebraically for non-invertible functions.
The core standards covered in this lesson
F.BF.B.4 — Find inverse functions.
F.IF.C.7.B — Graph square root, cube root, and piecewise-defined functions, including step functions and absolute value functions.
The foundational standards covered in this lesson
F.BF.B.4.A — Solve an equation of the form f(x) = c for a simple function f that has an inverse and write an expression for the inverse. For example, f(x) =2 x3 or f(x) = (x+1)/(x—1) for x ? 1.
A.CED.A.4 — Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using the same reasoning as in solving equations. For example, rearrange Ohm's law V = IR to highlight resistance R.

25-30 minutes
Here is the graph of a function. What are the possible values for the domain for the inverse of this function?
What is the domain that will make each of the following true functions?
$${f(x)=\sqrt{x-2}}$$ $${g(x)=2\sqrt{x}}$$ $${h(x)=\sqrt{x}+3}$$ $${Â j(x)={{\sqrt{x}}\over{5}}}$$ $${k(x)={{3}\over{\sqrt{x}}}}$$
A task that represents the peak thinking of the lesson - mastery will indicate whether or not objective was achieved
5-10 minutes
