Determine the domain of the function (fog) (x) where f(x) = 3x-1/x-4 and g(x)=x+1/x

Mrac [35]

Answer:

$(-\infty,0)\cup(0, \frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are $f(x)=\frac{3x-1}{x-4}$ and $g(x)=\frac{x+1}{x}$ .

We now composed the two functions to find:

$(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x))$

$\implies (f\circ g)(x)=f(\frac{x+1}{x})$

$\implies (f\circ g)(x)=\frac{3(\frac{x+1}{x})+1}{\frac{x+1}{x}-4}$

$\implies (f\circ g)(x)=\frac{4x+3}{1-3x}$

This function is defined if the denominator is not zero.

$1-3x\ne0$

$x\ne\frac{1}{3}$

We write this in interval notation as:

$(-\infty,\frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)$

We need to be cautious here as x=0 is not in the domain of g(x).

Therefore the domain of $(f\circ g)(x)$ is

$(-\infty,0)\cup(0, \frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)$

Will the product be more or less than 9 8/9

solniwko [45]

It would be less because when you multiply something by 1/2 you are basically dividing it by 2, finding half. So when you multiply 9 8/9 by 1/2 your product would be less than 9 8/9

Given the equation y = 4x - 3.A) If x increases by 1 unit, what is the corresponding change in y? B) If x decreases by 5 units,

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

A) y will increase by 4 unit.

B) y will decrease by 20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation that shows relation between x and y.

$y=4x-3$

A) If x is increased by 4 units

New value of y = $4(x+1)-3$

$=4x+4-3$

$=4x+1$

So, change in y = new value of y- original value of y

$=4x+1-(4x-3)$

$=4x+1-4x+3$

$=4$

Thus, the value of y will be increased by 4 units.

B) If x is decreased by 5 units

New value of y = $4(x-5)-3$

$=4x-20-3$

$=4x-23$

So, change in y = new value of y- original value of y

$=4x+1-(4x-3)$

$=4x-23-(4x-3)$

$=4x-23-4x+3$

= -20

Thus, the value of y will be decreased by 20 units.
