Let R denote the set of real numbers. Let f: $$R\,x\,R \to \,R\,x\,R\,$$ be a bijective function defined by f (x, y ) = (x + y, x - y). The inverse function of f is given by

$${f^{ - 1}}\,(x,\,y)\, = \,\left( {{1 \over {x\, + \,y}},\,{1 \over {x\, - \,y}}} \right)$$

$${f^{ - 1}}\,(x,\,y)\, = \,\,(x\, - \,y,\,\,x\, + y)$$

$${f^{ - 1}}\,(x,\,y)\, = \,\left( {{{x\, + \,y} \over 2},\,{{x\, - \,y} \over 2}} \right)$$

$${f^{ - 1}}\,(x,\,y)\, = \,(2\,(x\, - \,y),\,2\,(x\, + y))$$
