Determine whether the functions are inverses.
a.
Step 1 :Given two functions,
Step 2 :To determine if these functions are inverses of each other, we can compose the functions in both orders (f(g(x)) and g(f(x))) and see if the result is x in both cases.
Step 3 :First, let's find f(g(x)). Substituting
Step 4 :Next, let's find g(f(x)). Substituting
Step 5 :The result of f(g(x)) is
Step 6 :
