ECZ 2017 · GCE Paper 1 — Relations and Functions

With g : x → x − 12 and f : x → 3x − 5, find g-1f(x).

  • A. 2x + 63
  • B. 3x − 62
  • C. 6x − 9
  • D. 6x − 11

Verified working — step 1

In g-1f(x), the function nearest to x acts first: apply f, then feed the result into g-1. So build g-1 first.

The full step-by-step working and final answer, plus the video lesson for this topic, are included with Premium — checked against ECZ marking standards.
