The functions \(\mathrm{f}\) and \(\mathrm{g}\) are defined as follows.

\(\mathrm{f}(x)=x^2+4x\quad\text{for}\hspace{0.5em}x\in\mathbb{R}\)

\(\mathrm{g}(x)=1+\mathrm{e}^{2x}\quad\text{for}\hspace{0.5em}x\in\mathbb{R}\)

  1. Find the range of \(\mathrm{f}\).[2]
  2. Write down the range of \(\mathrm{g}\).[1]
  3. Find the exact solution of the equation \(\mathrm{fg}(x)=21\), giving your answer as a single logarithm.[4]
