R = S = 82
360 - 82 - 82 = 196
196/2 = 98
Q = T = 98

Let g the inverse function of f.
The most important property of g and f being inverses of each other, is that
g(f(x))=x, also f(g(x))=x
so, what one function 'does' to x, the other 'undoes' it.
Thus, we have:
f(g(x))=x and alos f(g(x))= -g(x)+3, from the rule
thus :
-g(x)+3=x
-g(x)=x-3
g(x)=-x+3
check: f(g(x))=f(-x+3)=-(-x+3)+3=x-3+3=x
Answer: the inverse of f is g, such that g(x)=-x+3
Answer: - 42.95 feet
Explanation:
Let each ascent be x. Thus,
2 equal ascents = 2x
From the information given,
initial position = - 64.5 feet
Final position after 2 ascents = - 21.4 feet
This means that
- 64.5 + 2x = - 21.4
2x = - 21.4 + 64.5
2x = 43.1
x = 43.1/2
x = 21.55
Thus, Max's elevation after the first ascent is
- 64.5 + 21.55
= - 42.95 feet
