The function \(\mathrm{f}\) is defined by \(\mathrm{f}:x\mapsto \frac{2x}{x-2}\), for \(x\in \mathbb{R}\), \(x\ne 2\).

  1. Sketch the graph of \(\mathrm{f}\) and find its range.[3]

Another function \(\mathrm{g}\) is defined by \(\mathrm{g}:x\mapsto 3+\left| x+2 \right|\), for \(x\in \mathbb{R}\).

  1. Show that the composite function \(\mathrm{fg}\) exists. Find \(\mathrm{fg}(x)\) and state the domain and range of \(\mathrm{fg}\).[5]
