This Hilarious Meme Explains Inverse Functions Better Than Any Math Class Ever Could
This meme isn't just hilarious — it’s a math lesson in disguise.
In the top panel, we see f(x) in action: the woman pointing aggressively at a confused cat — classic drama. But flip to the bottom panel, and suddenly it’s f⁻¹(x): the cat is pointing right back! 🔁
And that’s exactly what inverse functions do:
They reverse the process. If f(x) takes you from x to y, then f⁻¹(x) takes you right back from y to x. It’s like mathematical karma — and the cat finally gets its revenge! 🐱📐
So next time your calculus professor pulls out a whiteboard, just send them this meme instead. Math explained. Class dismissed.
