Answer:

The value of c is -1

g(x) = x² + 2x - 1, x ≥ -1

x must be greater than or equal -1 to make g(x) one-one function

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Any function that has an inverse must be a one-one function.
  • In the quadratic function, we can not find its inverse because it is a many-one function
  • If we restricted its domain at the x-coordinate of its vertex point it will be a one-one function so we can find its inverse
  • If a point (x, y) lies on a function, then point (y, x) lies on its inverse

<em>Let us use these notes to solve our question</em>

∵ g(x) = x² + 2x +c, where x ≥ -1

∴ g(x) is quadratic function

∵ f(x) is the inverse of g(x)

∵ f(2) = 1

→ That means point (2, 1) lies on the graph of f(x)

∴ (2, 1) ∈ f(x)

→ Switch x and y to find the image of this point on g(x)

∴ (1, 2) lies on the graph of g(x)

∴ (1, 2) ∈ g(x)

→ T find c substitute x and g(x) by the coordinates of the point (1, 2)

∵ x = 1 and g(x) = 2

∴ 2 = (1)² + 2(1) + c

∴ 2 = 1 + 2 + c

∴ 2 = 3 + c

→ Subtract 3 from both sides to find c

∵ 2 - 3 = 3 - 3 + c

∴  -1 = c

∴ The value of c is -1

∴ g(x) = x² + 2x - 1

To find the x-coordinate of the vertex point of g(x) use this rule h = \frac{-b}{2a} , where a is the coefficient of x² and b is the coefficient of x

∵ a = 1 and b = 2

∴ h = \frac{-2}{2(1)}=\frac{-2}{2}

∴ h = -1

→ By using the 3rd note above we must restrict the domain at the

  x-coordinate of its vertex

∵ The x-coordinate of g(x) is -1

∵ f(x) is the inverse of g(x)

∴ The domain of g(x) must be greater than or equal to -1

→ The domain is the values of x

∴ g(x) has an inverse if x ≥ -1

∴ x must be greater than or equal to -1 to make g(x) one-one function

Help!!!!
Alexxx [7]
Point B is located at (-2, 5).

In ordered pairs (the point), the x value is first, then the y value is second. Like so: (x,y). According to your question, it is (-2,5). This means the point is left 2 in the x direction, and up 5 in the y direction. This is point B.

I hope this Helps!
