\end{figure} Figure 4 shows a sketch of the graph of \(y = \mathrm { g } ( x )\), where $$g ( x ) = \begin{cases} ( x - 2 ) ^ { 2 } + 1 & x \leqslant 2
4 x - 7 & x > 2 \end{cases}$$
  1. Find the value of \(\operatorname { gg } ( 0 )\).
  2. Find all values of \(x\) for which $$\mathrm { g } ( x ) > 28$$ The function h is defined by $$\mathrm { h } ( x ) = ( x - 2 ) ^ { 2 } + 1 \quad x \leqslant 2$$
  3. Explain why h has an inverse but g does not.
  4. Solve the equation $$\mathrm { h } ^ { - 1 } ( x ) = - \frac { 1 } { 2 }$$
