\end{figure} Figure 2 shows a sketch of part of the graph \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x )\), where $$\mathrm { f } ( x ) = 2 | 3 - x | + 5 , \quad x \geqslant 0$$
  1. State the range of f
  2. Solve the equation $$f ( x ) = \frac { 1 } { 2 } x + 30$$ Given that the equation \(\mathrm { f } ( x ) = k\), where \(k\) is a constant, has two distinct roots, (c) state the set of possible values for \(k\).
