15) Prove that if an odd function f(x) is one-to-one, the inverse function g(y) is also odd.
Answer: If y = (-x), then - x = f(y), so x = -f(y) = f(-y) since f is odd.
Thus - y = (x), and so (-x) = y = - (x). Thus, is odd.

6) A dish with a temperature of 54°C is placed in a fridge, which has a constant temperature of
6°C.
If the dish cools to 30°C in a half hour, what is its temperature after another half hour?
Assume Newton's Law of Cooling.
Answer: Let y = y(t) be the temperature of the dish (in degrees Celsius) at time t (in hours since
the dish was placed in the fridge).
Thus y(0) = 54 and y( ) = 30.
Therefore, by Newton's Law of Cooling, = k(y - m), where m is the temperature of the fridge
and k is a constant. Here m = 6, hence = k(y -6). Now let u = u(t) = y -6 and noting that =
30 = 48 + 6, so 30 - 6 = 48 , or =
To find the temperature of the dish after another half hour we put t = + = 1 above.
