Derivative of Inverse Function
Question

Let  f : R → R  be a function such that  f '(x) = 5x4 + 3x2 + 5 and f (1) + f (–1) = 0. If g(f(x)) = x and h(x) = g(x2 + 4x – 5), then 

h'(2) = 813

h'(– 6) = 813

h'(– 5) = 65

h'(1) = -65

Solution

f '(x) = 5x4 + 3x2 + 5
f (x) = x5 + x3 + 5x + c
f (1) + f (–1) = 0  ⇒  c = 0
 f (x) = x5 + x3 + 5x
g(f(x)) = x  ⇒  g is the inverse function of  f
Now,    h(x) = g(x2 + 4x – 5)
            h'(x) = g'(x2 + 4x – 5) (2x + 4)
(A)    h'(– 6) = g'(7) (–8) = 8f'(1)=813         { f(1) = 7}
(B)    h'(2) = g'(7) (8) = 8f'(1)=813
(C)    h'(–5) = g'(0) (– 6) = 6f'(0)=65        { f(0) = 0}
(D)    h'(1) = g'(0) (6) = 6f'(0)=65
