Step-by-step Solution:
-
Understand the relationship between the derivative of a function and its inverse. We are given two functions, and , where is the inverse of , i.e., . The formula for the derivative of an inverse function states that if , then , and the derivative of with respect to is given by:
-
Identify the specific value we need to compute. We are asked to find the value of . According to the formula, this means we need to find the value of for which .
-
Find the value of x for which f(x) = 1. The function is given by . We need to solve the equation: This equation is not easily solvable algebraically. We can try to find a solution by inspection, testing simple values for . Let's try : So, we found that when , the corresponding value of is .
-
Find the derivative of f(x). The function is . We differentiate it with respect to using the power rule and the chain rule.
-
Evaluate the derivative f'(x) at x = 0. Now we substitute the value (found in step 3) into the expression for :
-
Calculate g'(1) using the inverse function derivative formula. Using the formula from step 1 with and : Substitute the value of we found in step 5:
Conclusion:
The value of is 2.
