Solution
Solution Steps
To solve the given problems, we need to follow these steps:
Finding \( g^{-1}(1) \): Since \( g \) is a one-to-one function, we can find the inverse by swapping the pairs. We need to find the \( x \) value such that \( g(x) = 1 \).
Finding \( h^{-1}(x) \): To find the inverse of the function \( h(x) = 2x + 13 \), we solve for \( x \) in terms of \( y \) where \( y = h(x) \).
Finding \( (h^{-1} \circ h)(-5) \): This involves applying the function \( h \) to \(-5\) and then applying the inverse function \( h^{-1} \) to the result.
Step 1: Find \( g^{-1}(1) \)
To find \( g^{-1}(1) \), we need to determine the value of \( x \) such that \( g(x) = 1 \). From the given function \( g \):
\[
g = \{(-9,1),(1,-2),(2,9),(6,-7)\}
\]
We see that \( g(-9) = 1 \). Therefore, \( g^{-1}(1) = -9 \).
Step 2: Find \( h^{-1}(x) \)
The function \( h(x) \) is given by:
\[
h(x) = 2x + 13
\]
To find the inverse function \( h^{-1}(x) \), we solve for \( x \) in terms of \( y \):
