h(x) = VF
X - 1'

Expert Solution
Step 1

The given functions are fx=tanx, gx=xx-1 and hx=x3.

The composition function of these function is: f ° g  ° h

This can be written as:

f ° g  ° h=fghx

So, to find this composition function, first, find the g  ° h=ghx

 

 

Step 2

Since, hx=x3.

Therefore, replace hx with x3 in ghx.

g  ° h=gx3

Since  gx=xx-1.

So, replace x with x3 in it.

g  ° h=ghx=x3x3-1
