Question

Let \(f(x) = \ln x\) and \(g(x) = 3 + \ln \left( {\frac{x}{2}} \right)\), for \(x > 0\).

The graph of \(g\) can be obtained from the graph of \(f\) by two transformations:

\[\begin{array}{*{20}{l}} {{\text{a horizontal stretch of scale factor }}q{\text{ followed by}}} \\ {{\text{a translation of }}\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} h \\ k \end{array}} \right).} \end{array}\]

Let \(h(x) = g(x) \times \cos (0.1x)\), for \(0 < x < 4\). The following diagram shows the graph of \(h\) and the line \(y = x\).

M17/5/MATME/SP2/ENG/TZ1/10.b.c

The graph of \(h\) intersects the graph of \({h^{ - 1}}\) at two points. These points have \(x\) coordinates 0.111 and 3.31 correct to three significant figures.

Write down the value of \(q\);

a.iii.

Find \(\int_{0.111}^{3.31} {\left( {h(x) - x} \right){\text{d}}x} \).

[2]
b.i.

Hence, find the area of the region enclosed by the graphs of \(h\) and \({h^{ - 1}}\).

[3]
b.ii.

Let \(d\) be the vertical distance from a point on the graph of \(h\) to the line \(y = x\). There is a point \({\text{P}}(a,{\text{ }}b)\) on the graph of \(h\) where \(d\) is a maximum.

Find the coordinates of P, where \(0.111 < a < 3.31\).
