Inverses of a quartic Consider the quartic polynomial

y = f(x) = x4x2.

a. Graph f and estimate the largest intervals on which it is one-to-one. The goal is to find the inverse function on each of these intervals.

b. Make the substitution u = x2 to solve the equation y = f(x) for x in terms of y. Be sure you have included all possible solutions.

c. Write each inverse function in the form y = f−1(x) for each of the intervals found in part (a).
