Hence, the solution set for the inequality

x
is {x : 0

This is the range of values of x where the

of y

Other than x 0, the domain of g

also has to follow the domain of f, i.e.

Hence, the domain of g

{x : x P R, x 0, x 1}.
If x 1, then g f (x) 3

g f (x) 1.
Thus, the range of g
f cannot take
the value 1. Other than that, based on
the graph in (c), the range of g
