Given the function y = (x - 2)2 graphed below, which restriction of the domain will result in the inverse being a function?

A: y = (x - 2)^2 , x ≥ 1
B: y = (x - 2)^2 , x ≥ 2
C: y = (x - 2)^2 , x ≥ 0
D: y = (x - 2)^2 , x ≥ -2

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph fails the "horizontal line test."  A horizontal line intersects the graph in more than one place.  But if we restrict the domain to either (-infinity, 2) or (2, infinity), the resulting graph passes the horizontal line test and represents a function that has an inverse.

Answer B is correct.  

the transverse axis of a hyperbola is the line that contains the two vertices and the two focuses.

in this example (hyperbola of equation x^2/2 - y^2/4 = 1), the transverse axis is the  x-axis  .
