The function \(\mathrm{f}\) is defined by

where \(p\) is a real constant.

  1. Find the range of \(\mathrm{f}\) if \(0\le p<9\).[1]
  2. If \(p=6\),
    1. find the exact solution(s) of \(\mathrm{f}(x)=4\),[2]
    2. determine if \(\mathrm{f}\) has an inverse. Justify your answer.[1]
  3. Find the inverse of \(\mathrm{f}\) in similar form when \(p=0\).[2]
  4. The function \(\mathrm{g}(x)=18-3x\) for \(5\le x<6\). Explain why the composite function \(\mathrm{fg}\) exists and find its range.[3]
