A function \(f\) is defined by \(f : x \mapsto 4 - 5x\) for \(x \in \mathbb{R}\).

(i) Find an expression for \(f^{-1}(x)\) and find the point of intersection of the graphs of \(y = f(x)\) and \(y = f^{-1}(x)\).

(ii) Sketch, on the same diagram, the graphs of \(y = f(x)\) and \(y = f^{-1}(x)\), making clear the relationship between the graphs.

The function g is such that \(g(x) = 8 - (x - 2)^2\), for \(k \leq x \leq 4\), where \(k\) is a constant.

(ii) State the smallest value of \(k\) for which \(g\) has an inverse.

For this value of \(k\),

(iii) find an expression for \(g^{-1}(x)\),

(iv) sketch, on the same diagram, the graphs of \(y = g(x)\) and \(y = g^{-1}(x)\).

Functions f and g are defined by

\(f : x \mapsto 2x^2 - 8x + 10\) for \(0 \leq x \leq 2\),

\(g : x \mapsto x\) for \(0 \leq x \leq 10\).

  1. Express \(f(x)\) in the form \(a(x + b)^2 + c\), where \(a, b\) and \(c\) are constants.
  2. State the range of \(f\).
  3. State the domain of \(f^{-1}\).
  4. Sketch on the same diagram the graphs of \(y = f(x)\), \(y = g(x)\) and \(y = f^{-1}(x)\), making clear the relationship between the graphs.
  5. Find an expression for \(f^{-1}(x)\).

The diagram shows the graph of \(y = f(x)\), where \(f : x \mapsto \frac{6}{2x+3}\) for \(x \geq 0\).

(ii) Find an expression, in terms of \(x\), for \(f^{-1}(x)\) and find the domain of \(f^{-1}\).

(iii) Copy the diagram and, on your copy, sketch the graph of \(y = f^{-1}(x)\), making clear the relationship between the graphs.

The function \(g\) is defined by \(g : x \mapsto \frac{1}{2}x\) for \(x \geq 0\).

(iv) Solve the equation \(fg(x) = \frac{3}{2}\).
