If f(x)=1x2f(x) = \frac{1}{x - 2} and g(x)=x+2g(x) = x + 2, what is f(g(x))f(g(x))?

  • A

    x+2x + 2

  • B

    1x+2\frac{1}{x + 2}

  • C

    1x\frac{1}{x}

    check_circle
  • D

    1x4\frac{1}{x - 4}

Explanation

f(g(x))=1g(x)2=1(x+2)2=1xf(g(x)) = \frac{1}{g(x) - 2} = \frac{1}{(x + 2) - 2} = \frac{1}{x}.
