Question

Consider f: R+ → [4, ∞) given by f(x) = x2 + 4. Show that f is invertible with the inverse f−1 of given f by `f^(-1)(y) = sqrt(y - 4)`, where R+ is the set of all non-negative real numbers.

Solution

f: R+ → [4, ∞) is given as f(x) = x2 + 4.

One-one:

Let f(x) = f(y).

⇒ x2 + 4 = y2 + 4

⇒ x2 = y2

⇒ x = y   ...[As x = y ∈ R+]

∴ f is a one-one function.

Onto:

For y ∈ [4, ∞), let y = x2 + 4.

⇒ x2 = y – 4 > = 0   ...[As y ≥ 4]

⇒ `x = sqrt(y - 4) ≥ 0`

Therefore, for any y ∈ R, there exists `x = sqrt(y - 4) ∈ R` such that

`f(x) = f(sqrt(y - 4))`

= `(sqrt(y - 4))^2 + 4`

= y – 4 + 4

= y

∴ f is onto.

Thus, f is one-one and onto and therefore, f−1 exists.

Let us define g: [4, ∞) → R+ by,

`g(y) = sqrt(y - 4)`

Now, gof(x) = g(f(x))

= g(x2 + 4) 

= `sqrt((x^2 + 4) - 4)`

= `sqrt(x^2)`

= x

And fog(y) = f(g(y)) 

= `f(sqrt(y - 4))`

= `(sqrt(y - 4))^2 + 4`

= (y – 4) + 4 

= y

∴ gof = fog = IR+

Hence, f is invertible and the inverse of f is given by`f^(-1)(y) = g(y) = sqrt(y - 4)`.
