<strong>The</strong> function f is defined by f(x) =2 − √ x for x ≥ 0. <strong>The</strong> graph of y = f(x) is shown above.<br />
(i) State the range of f. [1]<br />
(ii) Find the value of ff(4). [2]<br />
(iii) Given that the equation |f(x)| = k has two distinct roots, determine the possible values of the<br />
constant k. [2]<br />
