Start with the function \(y = h(x) = 4x^2 - 12x + 13\).
Complete the square for the quadratic expression:
\(4x^2 - 12x + 13 = 4(x^2 - 3x) + 13\).
\(= 4((x - \frac{3}{2})^2 - \frac{9}{4}) + 13\).
\(= 4(x - \frac{3}{2})^2 - 9 + 13\).
\(= 4(x - \frac{3}{2})^2 + 4\).
Set \(y = 4(x - \frac{3}{2})^2 + 4\).
Rearrange to solve for \(x\):
\(y - 4 = 4(x - \frac{3}{2})^2\).
\((x - \frac{3}{2})^2 = \frac{y - 4}{4}\).
\(x - \frac{3}{2} = \pm \sqrt{\frac{y - 4}{4}}\).
Since \(x < 0\), choose the negative root:
\(x = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{y - 4}}{2}\).
Thus, \(h^{-1}(x) = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{x - 4}}{2}\).
