Question
If f(x) and g(x) are inverse function of each other such that f(1)=3 & f(3)=1, then ∫31(g(x)+xf′(g(x)))dx is equal to

Solution
f−1(x)=g(x)⇒f(g(x))=x ⇒f′(g(x)).g′(x)=1
We have, ∫31(g(x)+xf′(g(x)))dx =∫31(g(x)+xg′(x))dx=[xg(x)]31 =3(g(3))−1(g(1))
We know that, f(3)=1⇒g(1)=3 & f(1)=3⇒g(3)=1
After substituting we get, =3(1)−1(3)=0
