The function f is defined for p x q, where p and q are positive
Question:
The function f is defined for p ≤ x ≤ q, where p and q are positive constants, by f : x ↦ x2 − 2x − 15.
The range of f is given by c ≤ f(x) ≤ d, where c and d are constants.
i. Express x2 − 2x − 15 in the form (x + a)2 + b.
ii. State the smallest possible value of c. For the case where c = 9 and d = 65,
iii. Find p and q,
iv. Find an expression for f−1(x).
