2 9758/01/PRELIMS/2020 1. A function f is defined by ( ) 23f 35 xx x += + . (i) Show that ( )f x can be written in the form 35 ba x+ + , where a and b are constants to be determined. [1] (ii) Hence describe a sequence of transformations which transforms the graph of 1y x= on to the graph of ( )fyx= . [4] 2. The complex number z has modulus 2 and argument 8 π . It is also given that 1iw= + . (i) Given that n is an integer, find * nz w in terms of n, giving your answer in the form ier θ . [3] (ii) Hence, find the smallest two positive integers n such that * nz w is real and negative. [3] 3. Do not use a calculator in answering this question. The equation 3225 0z z pz q+ + += has a root 1iz= −+ , where and pq are real constants. Find and pq and all the other roots of the equation. [7] 4. The function f is given by ( ) 5 , , 22f 1, , 2 xx x x xxx −∈<= ∈≥ (i) Sketch the graph of f( )yx= , stating the equation of any asymptotes and the coordinates of any points where the curve crosses the x- and y-axes. [2] (ii) Explain why f has an inverse. Hence find 1f () x− , giving your answer in a similar form. [4] Let ( ) 3g xx= , , 2xx∈≥ . (iii) Determine whether 1gf− exists. [2]
