Answer:
5/4 or 1 . 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 + 1/2 = 5/4 or 1 . 1/4
F(g(x)) = [(-7x-8)/(x-1) - 8} / [(-7x - 8)/(x-1) + 7] =
[(-7x - 8 - 8(x-1)) / (x-1)] / [(-7x - 8 + 7(x-1)) / (x-1)] = (-15x) / (-15) = x.
g(f(x)) = [-7*(x-8)/(x+7) - 8] / [(x-8)/(x+7) - 1] =
[(-7x + 56 -8*(x+7)) / (x+7)] / [(x - 8 - (x + 7)) / (x+7)] = (-15x) / (-15) = x.
So since f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x we can conclude that f and g are inverses.
(4x - 4) - 3 simplified = 4x -7
