for the function g(x)=-1+log2(x-5)
(i) find g^-1(x)
1st:: Interchange x and y to get x = -1+log2(y-5)
2nd:: Solve for "y"::
log2(y-5) = x+1
y-5 = 2^(x+1)
Ans:: g^-1(x) = 2^(x+1)+5
------------------------------
(ii) sketch the graph of g(x) and g^-1(x) on the same coordinate axes showing the asymptotes and intercepts
=====
------------
Asymptotes and intercepts::
For g(x) = -1+log2(x-5)
Asymptote:: x = 5
x-intercept:: Solve log2(x-5) = 1 ; x-5 = 2 ; x = 7
y-int:: none
--------
For g^-1(x) = 2^(x+1)+5
Asymptote:: y = 5
x-intercept:: none
y-intercept:: y = 7
---------------------
