    Default Math help

    I'm studing for a test tonight and I'm stuck on a question. Maybe you can help explain how I do this.

    Given h(x)= x/(x-1) and k(x)= 1/(x^2)

    simplify h o k and k o h.

    ok... here goes...

    h o k = (1 / (x^2) ) / ( 1 / (x^2) ) = 1 / ( 1 - x^2)

    k o h = 1 / ( x / (x-1) )^2 = (x^2 - 2x +1) / x^2 = 1 - (2/x) + (1/x^2)

    hope that helps.. you're talking about h circle k right in calculus?

    hehe i remember all that
    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”
    —Cicero, Roman statesman and lawyer

    I think this is covered in math 30 (or 31).

    I barely made it out of Math 30 alive... Someone please tell me why I am taking Calculus in an Engineering Course?!?!
    Sad thing is that now that I am being taught well, I am not doing all that bad!
