find the function "f" and "g" such that h = g o f.... if h = ....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[h \left( x \right) = \frac{ 2 - \left| x \right| }{ 2 + \left| x \right| }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you please help? i need to learn to do this for a test: @amistre64

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@amistre will write one possible answer, i will write another there are many ways to do what is requested

OpenStudy (amistre64):

there are many ways to express this: the simplest way is to factor; but in this case its prolly best to just define the separate function as |x|

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[g(x)=\frac{2-x}{2+x}\] \[f(x)=|x|\] \[g(f(x))=h(x)=\frac{2-|x|}{2+|x|}\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

does that make any sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeap...that makes perfect sense! i understand. i needed a way to "break" \[h(x)\] to smaller bits

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yep

OpenStudy (amistre64):

good luck with it :) ihave to run off to classes for the next 5 hours

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks a lot @amistre64
