8.      Find a formula for the inverse function of .    Plot the function and its inverse together in the same coordinate plane, showing the symmetry of these function across the line y = x.
ANS:  The inverse function is  .  We can make a table of integer points for f :
 and then simply reversing these gives the table for the invers function:  Plotting the points and keeping in mind the basic sigmoid (ESS) shape of the curves, we’d plot something like the following:
