The function \(\mathrm{f}\) is defined by \(\mathrm{f}:x \mapsto \frac{1}{2}+e^{-x}\), \(x \in \mathbb{R}\), \(x \ge 0\).

  1. Sketch the graph of \(y=\mathrm{f}(x)\), \(y=\mathrm{f}^{-1}(x)\) and \(y=\mathrm{f}^{-1}\mathrm{f}(x)\) on the same diagram, showing clearly their relationship.[3]

The function \(\mathrm{g}\) is defined by \(\mathrm{g}:x \mapsto 1+4x-x^2\), \(x \le 2\).

  1. Explain why \(\mathrm{g}^{-1}\) exists.[1]
  2. Find \(\mathrm{g}^{-1}(x)\) and state its domain.[3]
  3. Explain why the composite function \(\mathrm{gf}\) exists.[2]
  4. Find the exact range of \(\mathrm{gf}\).[2]
