QUESTION 1

Consider the function 𝑓(𝑥) = √𝑥 ! − 1, where 1 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 2.

The curve 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥) is rotated 2𝜋 about the 𝑦-axis to form a solid of revolution that is used to model
a water container.
At 𝑡 = 0, the container is empty. Water is then added to the container at a constant rate of 0.4m" s #$ .
(a) Sketch the curve 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥), clearly indicating the coordinates of the endpoints. [2]

(b) Show that the inverse function of 𝑓 is given by 𝑓 #$ (𝑥) = √𝑥 ! + 1. [3]
