Inverse of a restricted quadratic function and the range of a related square-root function

6 marks

A function \(\mathrm{f}\) is given by \(\mathrm{f}(x)=x^2-2x+6\) for \(x\leq1\).

  1. Find an expression for \(\mathrm{f}^{-1}(x)\) and write down the domain of \(\mathrm{f}^{-1}\).[4]
  2. The function \(\mathrm{g}\) is defined by \(\mathrm{g}(x)=3+\sqrt{\mathrm{f}(x)}\) for \(x\leq1\). Determine the range of \(\mathrm{g}\).[2]
