How to extract X value given Y value from graph.

18 views (last 30 days)
I want to find x value given y value,
%Finding X value with known Y value on plot
clc; clear all; close all;
x= 0:0.01:5;
y= [0.2 0.4 0.7 0.9 1.0]
[X, Y] = meshgrid(x);
A = ((1)./(1+5.*((x-5).^2)));
B = (2.^(-x));
C = ((2.*x)./(x+5));
plot(x, A, 'DisplayName', 'A')
hold on
plot(x, B, 'DisplayName', 'B')
hold on
plot(x, C, 'DisplayName', 'C')
hold on
title('A - B - C')
legend
