Find the domain of f(g(x)). f(x)= 5/x-1 g(x)=4/3x-2

If anyone can solve this and explain the steps I would greatly appreciate it. I found an answer but I want to check if I did it correctly.

Answer #1

f(x) = 5 / (x - 1)

g(x) = 4 / (3x - 2)

Therefore,

f(g(x))

= f(4 / (3x - 2))

= 5 / ((4 / (3x - 2)) - 1)

= 5 (3x - 2) / (4 - 3x + 2)

= 5 (3x - 2) / (6 - 3x)

Domain is the set of real values of x for which the function is real and defined.

In this case, for f(g(x)) to be real and defined, the denominator must not be equal to 0

Therefore,

6 - 3x 0

=> 3x 6

=> x 2

Therefore,

Domain is (- , 2) U (2, )

Let F : R → R, F(x) = 3x + 5. We can write F easily as the composite of two functions. Namely, if we define f and g (both with domain and codomainR)by the rules f(x)=x+5 and g(x)=3x, then F = f ◦ g. Find four other ways to write F as the composite of two functions (with domain and co- domain R).
