Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.

Evaluate Leave your answer as a fraction. (Note to type the fraction $\frac34$ , type 3/4)

$k\left(h(\var{n})\right)=$ $h\left(k(\var{n})\right)=$ Unnamed gap

Advice

Part a)

We have

$\begin{align}k\left(h(\var{n})\right)&=k\left(\simplify[!collectNumbers]{({a}*{n}+{b})/({c}*{n}+{d})}\right)\\&=k(\var[fractionNumbers]{eval(f_x,["x":n])})\\&= \var[fractionNumbers]{comb_n}\end{align}$

We have

$\begin{align}h\left(k(\var{n})\right)&=h\left(\simplify[!collectNumbers]{{l}*{n}+{m}}\right)\\&=h(\var[fractionNumbers]{eval(g_x,["x":n])})\\&= \var[fractionNumbers]{comb_n}\end{align}$

Part b)

The domain of a function is the set of possible inputs. The function $h(x)$ will not produce an output if it's denominator is $0$ , that is if $x=\simplify[fractionNumbers]{-{d/c}}$ . Hence the domain of $h(x)$ will be all real numbers except $x=\simplify[fractionNumbers]{-{rational(d/c)}}$ .

Part c)

We require

$\begin{align}h\left( k(x)\right)&=h\left(\simplify{{l}x+{m}}\right)\\&=\frac{\simplify{{a}({l}x+{m})+{b}}}{\simplify{{c}({l}x+{m})+{d}}}\\&=\frac{\simplify[expandBrackets,collectNumbers,cancelTerms]{{a*l}x+{a*m+b}}}{\simplify[expandBrackets,collectNumbers,cancelTerms]{{c*l}x+{c*m+d}}}\end{align}$

We require

$\begin{align}k\left( h(x)\right)&=k\left(\frac{\simplify{{a}x+{b}}}{\simplify{{c}x+{d}}}\right)\\&=\simplify{{l}*({a}x+{b})/({c}x+{d})+{m}}\\&=\frac{\simplify{{l*a}x+{l*b}+{m*c}x+{m*d}}}{\simplify{{c}x+{d}}}\end{align}$
