Function Analysis and Problem Solving

The video tutorial covers a problem from the 2024 AP Pre-Calculus exam. It begins with an introduction to the problem, followed by defining functions G and H, and calculating H(3). The tutorial then solves for x values where f(x) equals 1 and G(x) equals 2, using a calculator for the latter. It discusses the end behavior of G(x) as x approaches infinity and concludes by determining if f(x) has an inverse function, explaining that it does not due to multiple inputs mapping to the same output.
