We know that substituting a power of x into a power of x gives a power of x, so we try to see if f(x)=xn gives a solution: If so then try f(x) = xn then f(f(x)) = f(xn) = (xn)n = xn² = x2 The one and only way that can be true for all x is if the exponents of x are equal So n²=2 orSo one solution is Another solution is Can there be other solutions???
