f(x)= sq-root(x^2 + 3x-5) g(x)= x^-3
solve for f(g(x)) , g(f(x)) , f(x+h) (simplify)

I haven't touched math in two years and for some reason i can get figure this out somebody help. Thanks in advance D i suck at math !

BTW, the program I used is called Maple, v.9.5 I reccomend it very highly for any and all math... especially calculus

Mental/ written note takenli

Does maple really work that well?

Yes, Maple is wonderful. I used it last semester.

Any of you math geeks (who are into calculators) tried the HP calcs?

Back when I was in school, the HPs with RPN where the only things I could use. The stack based system was so easy to use and useful. No entering parenthesis or anything like that, you just did the order of operations in your head. You could also store values temporarily on the stack instead of having to declare variables.

Too bad HP stopped producing new calculators. I should pick up one of the latest versions of their calc before they're impossible to find. I just wish other people would make RPN based calculators.

Also nice was working with the Saturn CPU they had in them. Man, the registers were HUGE. That thing had ops for floating point math and everything. It puts the z80 of the Ti models to shame.

Sorry to go so off topic, but I had to ask.

Not that hard, just a somewhat more complicated function question.
