Question
Is it possible to help me for this exercise and write the steps? In the final answer, draw a
![**Problem Statement:**
Find \( f(g(x)) \) and \( g(f(x)) \) and determine whether the pair of functions \( f \) and \( g \) are inverses of each other.
Given:
\[ f(x) = \frac{4}{x - 3} \]
\[ g(x) = \frac{4}{x} + 3 \]
**Tasks:**
a. Calculate \( f(g(x)) = \, \Box \)
---
**Explanation:**
To solve the problem, perform the following steps:
1. **Substitute** the function \( g(x) \) into \( f(x) \) to find \( f(g(x)) \).
2. **Substitute** the function \( f(x) \) into \( g(x) \) to find \( g(f(x)) \).
3. Compare whether \( f(g(x)) = x \) and \( g(f(x)) = x \). If both conditions hold true, the functions \( f \) and \( g \) are inverses of each other.
This problem involves function composition and identifying properties of inverse functions, which is a fundamental concept in algebra and calculus.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/ee283cbe-8f3e-419a-948f-0c69c4764a18/0e6cc8ac-a700-497e-bf88-9b1588d96af4/jwycy45_thumbnail.jpeg)
