if f(x)=1/(x-2) and g(x)=4/x, what is (f*g)(x)?

The functions given are f(x) = 1/(x - 2) and g(x) =
4/x.


(f*g)(x) = fog(x)  =
f(g(x)).


To find f(g(x)), first we find g(x). g(x) =
4/x.


Substituting this in
f(x)


=>
f((4/x))


=> 1/ ((4/x) -
2)


=> 1 / [(4 -
2x)/x]


=> x / (4 -
2x)


Therefore the required result is x / (4 -
2x)

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
