QuestionFind the function gg if f(x)=1xf(x)=\frac{1}{x} and (fg)(x)=x+1x2x\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x)=\frac{x+1}{x^{2}-x}.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The function f(x)f(x) is given as f(x)=1xf(x)=\frac{1}{x} . The function (fg)(x)\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x) is given as (fg)(x)=x+1xx\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x)=\frac{x+1}{x^{}-x}
3. We are asked to find the function g(x)g(x)

STEP 2

The function (fg)(x)\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x) is the division of function f(x)f(x) by function g(x)g(x). So, we can write (fg)(x)\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x) as f(x)g(x)\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}.f(x)g(x)=x+1x2x\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{x+1}{x^{2}-x}

STEP 3

We know that f(x)=1xf(x)=\frac{1}{x}. Substitute this into the equation.
1xg(x)=x+1x2x\frac{\frac{1}{x}}{g(x)} = \frac{x+1}{x^{2}-x}

STEP 4

To find g(x)g(x), we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by g(x)g(x) and by xx.
g(x)=x(x+1)x2xg(x) = \frac{x \cdot (x+1)}{x^{2}-x}

STEP 5

implify the right side of the equation.
g(x)=x2+xx2xg(x) = \frac{x^{2}+x}{x^{2}-x}So, the function g(x)g(x) is g(x)=x2+xx2xg(x) = \frac{x^{2}+x}{x^{2}-x}.
