Question

Consider f: R+ → [–5, ∞) given by f(x) = 9x2 + 6x – 5. Show that f is invertible with `f^(-1)(y) = ((sqrt(y + 6) - 1)/3)`.

Solution

f: R+ → [–5, ∞) is given as f(x) = 9x2 + 6x – 5.

Let y be an arbitrary element of [–5, ∞).

Let y = 9x2 + 6x – 5.

⇒ y = (3x + 1)2 – 1 – 5 

⇒ y = (3x + 1)2 – 6

⇒ (3x + 1)2 = y + 6

⇒ `3x + 1 = sqrt(y + 6)`   ...[As y ≥ 5 ⇒ y + 6 > 0]

⇒ `x = (sqrt(y + 6) - 1)/3`

∴ f is onto, there by range f = [–5, ∞).

Let us define g: [–5, ∞) → R+ as g(y) = `(sqrt(y + 6) - 1)/3`.

We now have:

(gof)(x) = g(f(x)) 

= g(9x2 + 6x – 5)

= g((3x + 1)2 – 6)

= `sqrt((3x + 1)^2 - 6 + 6 - 1)/3`

= `(3x + 1 - 1)/3`

= x

And (fog)(y) = f(g(y)) 

= `f((sqrt(y + 6) - 1)/3)`

= `[3((sqrt(y + 6) - 1)/3) + 1]^2 - 6`

= `(sqrt(y + 6))^2 - 6`

= y + 6 – 6

= y

∴ `gof = I_R` and `fog = I_([-5, ∞)`

Hence, f is invertible and the inverse of f is given by`f^(-1)(y) = g(y) = (sqrt(y + 6) - 1)/3`.
