Solution

Let's go through the questions one by one based on the image provided:

1. Given f(x)=x+1xf(x) = \frac{x+1}{x}:

  • (a) Find f(10)f(10):
    Substitute x=10x = 10 into f(x)f(x): f(10)=10+110=1110.f(10) = \frac{10+1}{10} = \frac{11}{10}.

  • (b) Find f(3+h)f(3)h\frac{f(3+h) - f(3)}{h}:
    First, calculate f(3+h)f(3+h) and f(3)f(3):

    f(3+h)=(3+h)+13+h=4+h3+h,f(3+h) = \frac{(3+h)+1}{3+h} = \frac{4+h}{3+h}, f(3)=3+13=43.f(3) = \frac{3+1}{3} = \frac{4}{3}. Now substitute them into the expression: f(3+h)f(3)h=4+h3+h43h.\frac{f(3+h) - f(3)}{h} = \frac{\frac{4+h}{3+h} - \frac{4}{3}}{h}. This can be simplified further, but it's already the form of the difference quotient.

2. Determine the domain for each function:

  • (a) f(x)=xx21f(x) = \frac{x}{x^2 - 1}:
    The denominator should not be zero, so: x210x±1.x^2 - 1 \neq 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x \neq \pm1. Thus, the domain is x(,1)(1,1)(1,)x \in (-\infty, -1) \cup (-1, 1) \cup (1, \infty).

  • (b) g(x)=1+x22x+3g(x) = \frac{\sqrt{1 + x^2}}{2x + 3}:
    For g(x)g(x), the square root function requires the argument inside to be non-negative, and the denominator should not be zero: 2x+30x32.2x + 3 \neq 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x \neq -\frac{3}{2}. The domain is xR{32}x \in \mathbb{R} \setminus \left\{-\frac{3}{2}\right\}.

3. Determine whether the functions are odd, even, or neither:

  • (a) f(x)=3xx2+1f(x) = \frac{3x}{x^2 + 1}:
    Check if f(x)=f(x)f(-x) = -f(x) for odd or f(x)=f(x)f(-x) = f(x) for even: f(x)=3x(x)2+1=3xx2+1=f(x),f(-x) = \frac{-3x}{(-x)^2 + 1} = \frac{-3x}{x^2 + 1} = -f(x), so f(x)f(x) is odd.

  • (b) g(x)=x2+1x+x4g(x) = \frac{x^2 + 1}{|x| + x^4}:
    This function is neither odd nor even because the presence of the absolute value and the powers of xx leads to asymmetry.

4. Given f(x)=x1xf(x) = \frac{x - 1}{x} and g(x)=x2+1g(x) = x^2 + 1:

  • (a) (f+g)(2)(f + g)(2):
    f(2)=212=12,g(2)=22+1=5,f(2) = \frac{2-1}{2} = \frac{1}{2}, \quad g(2) = 2^2 + 1 = 5, (f+g)(2)=f(2)+g(2)=12+5=112.(f + g)(2) = f(2) + g(2) = \frac{1}{2} + 5 = \frac{11}{2}.

  • (b) (fg)(2)(f \cdot g)(2):
    (fg)(2)=f(2)g(2)=125=52.(f \cdot g)(2) = f(2) \cdot g(2) = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 5 = \frac{5}{2}.

  • (c) (fg)(2)(f \circ g)(2):
    First, calculate g(2)g(2), then substitute it into f(x)f(x): g(2)=5,f(5)=515=45.g(2) = 5, \quad f(5) = \frac{5 - 1}{5} = \frac{4}{5}. So, (fg)(2)=45(f \circ g)(2) = \frac{4}{5}.

  • (d) (gf)(2)(g \circ f)(2):
    First, calculate f(2)f(2), then substitute it into g(x)g(x): f(2)=12,g(12)=(12)2+1=14+1=54.f(2) = \frac{1}{2}, \quad g\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 + 1 = \frac{1}{4} + 1 = \frac{5}{4}. So, (gf)(2)=54(g \circ f)(2) = \frac{5}{4}.

  • (e) f2(2)+g2(2)f^2(2) + g^2(2):
    This means f(2)2+g(2)2f(2)^2 + g(2)^2: f(2)2=(12)2=14,g(2)2=52=25,f(2)^2 = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{4}, \quad g(2)^2 = 5^2 = 25, f2(2)+g2(2)=14+25=1014.f^2(2) + g^2(2) = \frac{1}{4} + 25 = \frac{101}{4}.
