  1. y = (1/x - 1)^2


  2. f(x) = [1 - x^1/2] / [1 + x^1/2]

    let f(x) = y, then x = f^-1(y).

    f(x) = [1 - x^1/2] / [1 + x^1/2] = y

    1 - x^1/2 = y + yx^1/2

    1 - y = x^1/2 + yx^1/2 = x^1/2 * (1 + y)

    x^1/2 = (1 - y) / (1 + y)

    x = [(1 - y) / (1 + y)]^2 = f^-1(y)

    f^-1(x) = [(1 - x) / (1 + x)]^2

    domain : x is all but -1.

  3. Switch x and y

    solve for y

  4. y= 1-x^1/2 / 1+x^1/2 = 1

    so y^-1 is all R
