Help please xx

OpenStudy (angel.candy):

g(f(x)) = g(-4x+3) => g(f(x)) = 1/[(-4x+3) + 2] => g(f(x)) = 1/(5 − 4x) the domain of g(f(x)) is {x ∈ ℝ : x ≠ 5/4} as x = 5/4 would result in division by zero.

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

Okay so you have all the parts in order right, I just write as is?

OpenStudy (angel.candy):

Yep :)

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

and the domain ? Its not quite clear :/ how would I write that on paper

OpenStudy (angel.candy):

The domain would result in zero. g(f(x)) is not defined for 1/0, no number is defined when divided by zero, therefore it is a restriction upon the function as it cannot give an image where the denominator is zero. Therefore (5 - 4x) = 0 5 = 4x 1.25 = x Hence g(f(x)) has the restriction x =/= 1.25

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

So if I'm understanding you correctly the domain is 0? and that is how I would write it on paper

OpenStudy (angel.candy):

No, no. A restricted domain results when the denominator is zero, sorry I didn't explain well. Your restriction would be 1.25 because of herefore (5 - 4x) = 0 5 = 4x 1.25 = x Hence g(f(x)) has the restriction x =/= 1.25

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

So the domain is ?

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

x=/=1.25

OpenStudy (angel.candy):

Yes that is the restricted domain

OpenStudy (angel.candy):

:)

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

and that is the only answer right for step 3?

OpenStudy (angel.candy):

yes. :)

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

Thanks babe <3
