Question
The functions 𝑔 and ℎ are given by 𝑔(𝑥)=log5(4𝑥-2) ℎ(𝑥)=sin-1(8𝑥).(i) Solve 𝑔(𝑥)=3 for values of 𝑥 in the domain of 𝑔.(ii) Solve ℎ(𝑥)=𝜋4 for values of 𝑥 in the domain of ℎ.
Solution 1
(i) To solve 𝑔(𝑥)=3 for values of 𝑥 in the domain of 𝑔, we first set 𝑔(𝑥) equal to 3:
log5(4𝑥-2) = 3
Next, we convert the logarithmic equation to an exponential equation:
5^3 = 4𝑥 - 2
125 = 4𝑥 - 2
Then, we solve for 𝑥:
4𝑥 = 127
𝑥 = 127/4
𝑥 = 31.75
So, the solution to 𝑔(𝑥)=3 in the domain of 𝑔 is 𝑥 = 31.75.
(ii) To solve ℎ(𝑥)=𝜋/4 for values of 𝑥 in the domain of ℎ, we first set ℎ(𝑥) equal to 𝜋/4:
sin^-1(8𝑥) = 𝜋/4
Next, we take the sine of both sides:
8𝑥 = sin(𝜋/4)
Then, we solve for 𝑥:
𝑥 = sin(𝜋/4) / 8
𝑥 = √2 / 16
So, the solution to ℎ(𝑥)=𝜋/4 in the domain of ℎ is 𝑥 = √2 / 16.
Solution 2
(i) To solve the equation g(x) = 3, we first substitute g(x) with its given function:
log5(4x - 2) = 3
We then convert the logarithmic equation to an exponential equation:
5^3 = 4x - 2
Solving for x, we get:
125 = 4x - 2
Adding 2 to both sides, we get:
127 = 4x
Finally, dividing both sides by 4, we get:
x = 127/4
So, the solution to g(x) = 3 is x = 127/4, provided that x is in the domain of g. The domain of g is x > 1/2, and 127/4 > 1/2, so x = 127/4 is indeed in the domain of g.
(ii) To solve the equation h(x) = π/4, we first substitute h(x) with its given function:
sin^-1(8x) = π/4
We then take the sine of both sides:
8x = sin(π/4)
Solving for x, we get:
x = sin(π/4) / 8
So, the solution to h(x) = π/4 is x = sin(π/4) / 8, provided that x is in the domain of h. The domain of h is -1 ≤ x ≤ 1, and -1 ≤ sin(π/4) / 8 ≤ 1, so x = sin(π/4) / 8 is indeed in the domain of h.
