Find f(x) if g(f(x))=x and g(x)=(x+1)/(x-1)​

Answer:

  f(x) = (x +1)/(x -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f(x) = y. We want to find y such that ...

  g(y) = x

  (y +1)/(y -1) = x

  y +1 = xy -x . . . . . . multiply by y-1

  y -xy = -x -1 . . . . . . add -1 -xy

  y(x -1) = x +1 . . . . . . multiply by -1 and factor out y

  y = (x +1)/(x -1) . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

Then ...

  f(x) = (x +1)/(x -1)

_____

<em>Check</em>

  g(f(x)) = ((x +1)/(x -1) +1)/((x +1)/(x -1) -1)

  = ((x +1 +x -1)/(x -1)) / ((x +1 -x +1)/(x -1))

  = 2x/2

  = x

Determine the domain of the function (f o g)(x) where f(x)= 3/x+2 and g=5/x.
vitfil [10]

Answer:

The Domain is all real values of x except x = 0 and x = -2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that f(x) = 3/(x + 2).

(f o g)x is found by substituting  5/x for the x in 3/(x + 2).

(f o g) x = 3/ ( 5/x + 2)

= 3 / ( 5+2x) / x

= 3x / (5 + 2x).

When finding the domain you  first check for values of x which make g(x) undefined then values of x which make (f o g)(x) undefined.

x = 0 makes  g(x) = 5/0 so it is undefined and  x = -2.5 makes g o f undefined also.

The system shown at the right has no solution, as the grahs never intersect.
On the other hand, the line and the parab. at the left do intersect, and the points of intersection are (-3,0) and (6,6).
