There will not be an inverse for this function. Not all functions have inverses.
Notice f(x) is zero when x=anythign other than 2. So, the inverse (zero) cannot map back to a specific x.
There has to be a one to one correspondence both ways x->y and y->x for inverses to exist.
Now if it had been something like this,
(1,0); (3,-3); (34,17); (0,3) the inverse would have been
(0,1);-3,3; 17,34; 3,0
