Question

Suppose that the functions h and f are defined as follows. h(x) =3/x, x notequalto 0 f(x) = x^2 - 1 Find the compositions h composite function h and f composite function f Simplify your answers as much as possible. (Assume that your expressions are defined for all x in the domain of the composition. You do not have to indicate the domain.)

Answer 1

Answer:

hf(x) = 3/(x² - 1)

fh(x) = (9 - x²)/x²

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = 3/x

f(x) = x² - 1

h(f(x)) = 3/f(x)

hf(x) = 3/(x² - 1)

f(h(x)) = (h(x))² - 1

= (3/x)² - 1

= 9/x² - 1

fh(x) = (9 - x²)/x²
