Function  is defined as follows:

g(x)={5x2if x3,21+xif 3<x10,2xif x>10.

 

This function has an inverse.

Since g(x) is a piecewise function, we need to find the inverse of each piece separately.

The inverse of g(x)=5x2 is x=5g(x)​​.

The inverse of g(x)=21+x is x=g(x)−21.

The inverse of g(x)=2−x​ is x=4−4x​.

Therefore, g−1(7) is equal to 75=75 21+75=21+75 4475=4475.The only solution in the domain of g^{−1}(7) is 4 - 4*sqrt(7/5).
