Functions
1 The function 𝑓 is defined by 𝑓: → 𝑥 2 − 4𝑥, 𝑥 ∈ 𝐼𝑅, |𝑥| ≤ 1
Show by means of a graphical argument or otherwise, that 𝑓 is one-one, and find an
expression for 𝑓 −1 (𝑥). [5]
2 It is given that 𝑓(𝑥) ≡ (𝑥−∝)(𝑥 + 𝛽), 𝑥 ∈ 𝐼𝑅, where ∝ and 𝛽 are positive constants.
Sketch on separate diagrams the curves with the following equations, giving in each
case the coordinates of the points at which the curve meets the 𝑥-axis.
(i) 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥), (ii) 𝑦 = |𝑓(𝑥)|. [2/2]
3 (a) The functions 𝑓, 𝑔 and ℎ are defined by
𝑥 3
𝑓: 𝑥 → 2𝑥−3, 𝑥 ∈ 𝐼𝑅, 𝑥 ≠ 2;
1
𝑔: 𝑥 → 𝑥+1 , 𝑥 ∈ 𝐼𝑅, 𝑥 ≠ −1;
ℎ: 𝑥 → 3𝑥 + 1, 𝑥 ∈ 𝐼𝑅.
Find (i) ℎ𝑔(𝑥), [1]
(ii) 𝑓 −1 (𝑥). [2]
The function 𝑓 is defined by
𝑓: 𝑥 → |5 − 𝑥| for −1 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 7
(i) Sketch the graph of 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥). [2]
(ii) State the range of 𝑓. [1]

4 Sketch, on the same axes, the graphs of 𝑦 = |2𝑥 − 3| and 𝑦 = 𝑥 + 1. Hence solve the
inequality |2𝑥 − 3| < 𝑥 + 1. [4]
5 (i) Sketch on the same diagram the graphs of 𝑦 = |3𝑥 + 4| and 𝑦 = |2𝑥 + 1|.
(ii) Hence or otherwise, solve the inequality |3𝑥 + 4| < |2𝑥 + 1|. [5]
