Answer: The fraction 301/900
Note: I'm assuming the 4's continue on forever

==============================================

Work Shown:

I'm going to assume that the 4s go on forever. I'll represent this with three dots after the last 4 like so
0.334444...

Now let x = 0.334444...

Multiply both sides by 100
x = 0.334444...
100x = 100*(0.334444...)
100x = 33.444444...

And repeat with 1000
x = 0.334444...
1000x = 1000*(0.334444...)
1000x = 334.444444...

Then subtract and solve for x. Notice how the decimal parts line up and cancel
1000x-100x = (334.444444...) - (33.444444...)
1000x-100x = (334+0.444444...) - (33+0.444444...)
1000x-100x = 334+0.444444... - 33 - 0.444444...
1000x-100x = (334-33)+(0.444444... - 0.444444...)
900x = 334 - 33
900x = 301
x = 301/900

Help help needed for composition of function
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

\circledast \ \ f\circ f\left( x\right) = x

\circledast \ \ g\circ g\left( x\right)  =4x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=\frac{5}{2x}

g(x) = 2x - 7

==============

f\circ f\left( x\right)  =\frac{5}{2\left( f\left( x\right)  \right)  }

             =\frac{5}{2\left( \frac{5}{2x}  \right)  }

             =\frac{5}{\left( \frac{5}{x}  \right)  }

             =5\times\frac{x}{5}

             =x

_____________

g\circ g\left( x\right)  =2(g(x)) - 7

            = 2(2x - 7) - 7

           = 4x - 14 - 7

           = 4x - 23
