Consider f : R+ → [– 5, ∞) given by f(x) = 9x2 + 6x – 5. Show that f is invertible
with 
.
f: R+ → [ - 5, ∞) is given as f(x) = 9x2 + 6x - 5.
Let y be an arbitrary element of [ - 5, ∞).
Let y = 9x2 + 6x - 5.
∴f is onto, thereby range f = [ - 5, ∞).
Let us define g: [ - 5, ∞) → R+ as
We now have:
∴ gof = IR+ and
Hence, f is invertible and the inverse of f is given by
