Question

D. Evaluate each of the following. (5 points)

Answer 1

Problem 1

f(x) = x + 1/x

f(1) = 1 + 1/1

f(1) = 1 + 1

f(1) = 2

Answer: 2

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

Problem 2

(f o f)(1) = f( f(1) )

(f o f)(1) = f( 2 )

(f o f)(1) = 2 + 1/2

(f o f)(1) = 4/2 + 1/2

(f o f)(1) = 5/2

Answer:  5/2

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

Problem 3

(f o f o f)(1) = f(  f(f(1)) )

(f o f o f)(1) = f(  (f o f)(1) )

(f o f o f)(1) = f(  5/2 )

(f o f o f)(1) = 5/2 + 1/(5/2)

(f o f o f)(1) = 5/2 + 2/5

(f o f o f)(1) = 25/10 + 4/10

(f o f o f)(1) = 29/10

Answer: 29/10

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

Problem 4

(f o f o f o f)(1) = f(   f(f(f(1))   )

(f o f o f o f)(1) = f(   (f o f o f)(1)    )

(f o f o f o f)(1) = f(   29/10   )

(f o f o f o f)(1) = 29/10 + 1/(29/10)

(f o f o f o f)(1) = 29/10 + 10/29

(f o f o f o f)(1) = 841/290 + 100/290

(f o f o f o f)(1) = 941/290

Answer: 941/290

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

Problem 5

(f o f o f o f o f)(1) = f(   f(f(f(f(1))))   )

(f o f o f o f o f)(1) = f(   (f o f o f o f)(1)  )

(f o f o f o f o f)(1) = f(   941/290  )

(f o f o f o f o f)(1) = 941/290 + 1/(941/290)

(f o f o f o f o f)(1) = 941/290 + 290/941

(f o f o f o f o f)(1) = 885481/272890 + 84100/272890

(f o f o f o f o f)(1) = 969581/272890

Answer: 969581/272890
