INV function

Description

INV(x) returns the multiplicative inverse of x, so that x * inv(x) = 1.

The argument x can be a real number, a complex number, or a matrix. When it is a matrix, the function returns the inverted matrix (see INV matrix function). To invert all elements of a matrix A, use the function POWER(A,-1).

Example

INV(5) returns 0.5

Graph

Function:	INV()
	X-axis	Y-axis
Minimum:	Minimum X	Minimum Y
Maximum:	Maximum X	Maximum Y

Enter the argument(s) for the function, including the symbol x.
Enter the minimum and maximum for the X-axis and for the Y-axis.
To let the software define the Y-axis automatically, leave both input fields for the Y-axis empty.
