(a) Functions f and g are defined, for x ⑀ ⺢, by
f(x) = 3 – x,
x
g(x) = , where x ≠ –2.
x+2
(i) Find fg(x). [2]
(ii) Hence find the value of x for which fg(x) = 10. [2]
(b) A function h is defined, for x ⑀ ⺢, by h(x) = 4 + ln x, where x > 1.
m
(i) Find the range of h. [1]
co
(ii) Find the value of h–1(9). [2]
s.
(iii) On the same axes, sketch the graphs of y = h(x) and y = h–1(x). [3]
