Let `f : R to R : f (x) =10x +7.` Find the function `g : R to R : g o f = f o g =I_(g)`

Answer» Clearly `g = f^(-1)`
Now `f(x_(1)) =f(x_(2)) rArr 10x_(1) +7 =10x_(2) +7`
`rArr x_(1) =x_(2)`
`:. ` f is one-one
Now `y =f(x) rArr y = 10x +7`
`rArr x= ((y-7))/(10)`
Clearly for each `y in R` (codomain of f) there exists `x in R` such that
`f(x) =f ((y-7)/(10)) ={ 10.((y-7)/(10))+7 } =y`
` :.` f is onto.
Thus f is one-one onto and therefore `f^(-1)` exists
we define `f^(-1) : R to R : f^(-1) (y) = (y-7)/(10)`
Hence `g : R to R : g (y) = (y-7)/(10) ` [using (i)]
