Question 191326: I just learned Composite functions last class and I am really struggling with it... Is there any way you can show me how to do this with steps so that I can see exactly how this is done please.
Let f(x)=x/x-1, g(x)=-4/x, and h(x)=3x-2
Find the domain of f
Find the domain of g
Find the domain of h
Find (fog)(x)
Find the domain of fog
Find (fog)(2)
Find (goh)(x)
Find the slope of h(x)
Determine whether h(x) is an increasing, decreasing or constant function
Find h^-1(x)

Let f(x)=x/x-1,
g(x)=-4/x,
and h(x)=3x-2
-------------------------
Find the domain of f: all Real numbers except x = 1
-----------------------------------------
Find the domain of g: all Real numbers except x = 0
---------------------------------------------
Find the domain of h: all Real numbers
-----------------------------------------
Find (fog)(x) =f[-4/x) = (-4/x)/(-4/x)-1) = (-4/x)/[(-4-x)/x]
= [4(4+x)] = 16+4x
-----------------------------------------
Find the domain of fog: all Real Numbers
Find (fog)(2) = f(g(2)) = f(-4/2) = = f(-2) = -2/(-2-1) = 2/3
--------------------------------------------
Find (goh)(x) = g[3x-2] = -4/(3x-2)
-------------------------------------------------
Find the slope of h(x): slope = 3
---------------------------------------------------
Determine whether h(x) is an increasing, decreasing or constant function
Increasing because the slope is greater than 3
------------------------------------------------------
Find h^-1(x) = (x+2)/3
