**Problem 6: Function Analysis**

Let \( f(x) = x - 1 \) and \( g(x) = (x + 2)^2 \), find the following:

**a) Domain of \( f(x) \):**

This refers to all the possible input values (x-values) for which the function \( f(x) \) is defined.

**b) Range of \( f(x) \):**

This involves all the possible output values (y-values) that \( f(x) \) can produce.

**c) Domain of \( g(x) \):**

This refers to all the possible input values for the function \( g(x) \) that make it defined.

**d) Range of \( g(x) \):**

This identifies all the possible outputs that \( g(x) \) can yield.

**e) \( (f-g)(x) = \)**

Compute the result of subtracting \( g(x) \) from \( f(x) \).

**f) \( (f \cdot g)(x) = \)**

Calculate the product of \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \).

**g) \( (f \circ g)(x) = \)**

Evaluate the composition of \( f \) with \( g \), i.e., \( f(g(x)) \).

**h) \( (g \circ f)(x) = \)**

Evaluate the composition of \( g \) with \( f \), i.e., \( g(f(x)) \).

**i) \( f^{-1}(x) \) =**

Determine the inverse of the function \( f(x) \).

**j) Is \( g(x) \) a 1-1 function? Explain:**

Explain whether \( g(x) \) is a one-to-one function, where each input leads to a unique output.

**Note:** 

- There are no graphs or additional diagrams associated with this text. 
- A one-to-one function means no two different inputs produce the same output.

Expert Solution
Step 1

"Since you have posted a question with multiple subparts, we will solve the first three subparts for you. To get the remaining subparts solved please repost the complete question and mention the subparts to be solved "

The function f(x) is a rule that associates or fixes a number to the particular point x. If y=f(x), then the independent variable x is called the input of the function and the dependent variable y is called the output of the function.

In this problem, the functions are fx=x-1 and gx=x+22. We have to find the domain and range of the functions.
