Solution

Here, function f:R+[5,) is given as f(x)=9x2+6x5.
Let y be any arbitrary element of [5,).
Let y=9x2+6x5
y=(3x+1)215=(3x+1)26(3x+1)2=y+6
3x+1=y+6[as y5y+60]

x=y+613
Therefore, f is onto, thereby range f=[5,).
Let us define g:[5,)R+ as g(y)=y+613
Now, (gof)(x)=g(f(x))=g(9x2+6x5)=g((3x+1)26)
=(3x+1)26+613=3x+113=x
and (fog)(y)=f(g(y))=f(y+613)=[3(y+613)+1]26
=(y+6)26=y+66=y
Therefore, gof=IR+ and fog=I[5,]
Hence, f is invertible and the inverse of f if given by
f1(y)=g(y)=y+613
