Let g(x)=x/(8-x) and h(x)=x^3-2x^2+8. Calculate the function g(h(t)). so confusing...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plut t in for x in the h equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get the equation but just with a t instead of an x right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now take that equation the entire thing and write it in the g formula whereever you see an x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and thats the final answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes! g(h(t))=(t^3 -2t^2+8)/(8-t^3+2t^2-8) notice the signs change on the bottom because it was (8-x) so the -x made all the signs change now the 8's cancel

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you so much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait one minute i'll make sure it cannot be simplified

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no its good :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

awesome! Im going to test it out right now
