The function \(\mathrm{g}\) is defined by \(\mathrm{g}:x \mapsto \ln(x-\sqrt{3})\), for \(x \in \mathbb{R},\ x>\sqrt{3}\).

  1. Explain how you know \(\mathrm{g}^{-1}\) exists.[2]
  2. Find \(\mathrm{g}^{-1}(x)\) and write down its domain.[3]
  3. Solve \(\mathrm{g}(x)=0\) exactly.[1]
  4. Hence, without using a calculator, solve the inequality \(\dfrac{\mathrm{g}(x)}{(x-3)(x+1)} \ge 0\).[3]
