Diagram of simple filtration: oversize particles in the feed cannot pass through the lattice structure of the filter, while fluid and small particles pass through, becoming filtrate.
An odd function can be identified by replacing both the x and y values with -x and -y values. If the values in your equation are the opposite (positives are negatives and negatives are positives), then the function is odd. Take, for example, this equation y = x^2.
In mathematics, an inverse function is a function that reverses another function: if the function f applied to an input x gives a result of y, then applying its inverse function g to y gives the result x, and vice versa. i.e., f(x) = y if and only if g(y) = x.
