Answer Key

Section A — Multiple Choice Questions
  1. (B) $9$
  2. (C) bijective
  3. (A) $\dfrac{x+1}{2}$
  4. (B) $f^{-1}\circ g^{-1}$
  5. (C) $f$
Section B — Short Answer (2 marks)
  1. $9$.
  2. $f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x-2}{3}$.
  3. e.g. with $f(x)=x+1,\ g(x)=x^2$: $(g\circ f)(1)=4\ne(f\circ g)(1)=2$.
  4. $(f\circ g)(x)=x$.
Section C — Short Answer (3 marks)
  1. $(g\circ f)(x)=(2x+1)^2$; $(f\circ g)(x)=2x^2+1$.
  2. $f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{4x-3}{2}$.
  3. $g\circ f=f\circ g=I$, so $g=f^{-1}$.
  4. Both equal $\dfrac{x-2}{2}$.
Section D — Long Answer (5 marks)
  1. Invertible; $f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x-3}{4}$.
  2. Bijective; $f^{-1}(x)=x^{1/3}$.
