先因式分解二次式,再通分合并三个分式。所得分子含有因子 (x+1)(x+1),约去后即可读出 a,b,c,da,b,c,d

答题过程

展开

We have

f(x)=3x2x+1+5x+262x23x5f(x)=3-\frac{x-2}{x+1}+\frac{5x+26}{2x^2-3x-5}

First factorise

2x23x52x^2-3x-5

as

2x23x5=(2x5)(x+1)2x^2-3x-5=(2x-5)(x+1)

So

f(x)=3x2x+1+5x+26(2x5)(x+1)f(x)=3-\frac{x-2}{x+1}+\frac{5x+26}{(2x-5)(x+1)}

Use the common denominator

(x+1)(2x5)(x+1)(2x-5)

Then

f(x)=3(x+1)(2x5)(x2)(2x5)(x+1)(2x5)+5x+26(x+1)(2x5)\begin{align*} f(x) =&\,\frac{3(x+1)(2x-5)-(x-2)(2x-5)} {(x+1)(2x-5)}\\[4mm] &\,\hspace{2pt}+\frac{5x+26}{(x+1)(2x-5)} \end{align*}

Now expand the numerator:

3(x+1)(2x5)=3(2x23x5)=6x29x153(x+1)(2x-5)=3(2x^2-3x-5)=6x^2-9x-15

Also,

(x2)(2x5)=2x29x+10(x-2)(2x-5)=2x^2-9x+10

So the numerator is

6x29x15(2x29x+10)+5x+26=4x2+5x+1=(4x+1)(x+1)\begin{align*} &\,6x^2-9x-15-(2x^2-9x+10)+5x+26\\[4mm] =&\,4x^2+5x+1\\[4mm] =&\,(4x+1)(x+1) \end{align*}

Therefore

f(x)=(4x+1)(x+1)(x+1)(2x5)=4x+12x5\begin{align*} f(x) =&\,\frac{(4x+1)(x+1)}{(x+1)(2x-5)}\\[4mm] =&\,\frac{4x+1}{2x-5} \end{align*}

Hence

f(x)=4x+12x5\boxed{f(x)=\frac{4x+1}{2x-5}}

so one possible set of constants is

a=4,b=1,c=2,d=5\boxed{a=4,\quad b=1,\quad c=2,\quad d=-5}

(b)

解法一

思路

展开

y=f(x)y=f(x),把等式重新整理成以 xx 为主项的形式,最后交换自变量名称即可得到反函数。

答题过程

展开

Let

y=f(x)y=f(x)

Then

y=4x+12x5y=\frac{4x+1}{2x-5}

Rearrange:

y(2x5)=4x+1y(2x-5)=4x+1

So

2xy5y=4x+12xy-5y=4x+1

Bring the xx terms to one side:

2xy4x=5y+12xy-4x=5y+1

Factorise:

x(2y4)=5y+1x(2y-4)=5y+1

Therefore

x=5y+12y4x=\frac{5y+1}{2y-4}

Replace yy by xx:

f1(x)=5x+12x4\boxed{f^{-1}(x)=\frac{5x+1}{2x-4}}

(c)

解法一

思路

展开

反函数的定义域就是原函数的值域。按照 A Level 常用答题方式,代入端点 x=4x=4,再结合 xx\to\infty 时的水平渐近值确定开区间。

答题过程

展开

The domain of f1f^{-1} is the range of ff.

For

f(x)=4x+12x5,x>4f(x)=\frac{4x+1}{2x-5},\qquad x>4

the upper endpoint is found by using x=4x=4:

f(4)=173.f(4)=\frac{17}{3}.

As xx\to\infty,

f(x)42=2f(x)\to \frac{4}{2}=2

Therefore the range of ff is

2<f(x)<1732<f(x)<\frac{17}{3}

Hence the domain of f1f^{-1} is

2<x<173\boxed{2<x<\frac{17}{3}}
