For which pairs of functions is (f * g) (x)?

The pairs of functions that best represent the equation are f(x)=x² and g(x)=1/x

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you will have to multiply each equation in the answer choices until you find the pair that has a product of x.

Let's start with the first answer choice.

(f * g)(x)

f(x)=x²

g(x)=1/x

Now, we multiply these terms together.

x² * 1/x = x²/x

Now, divide x from x². When you are dividing exponents, the exponential numbers subtract. So, since there is no exponent on x, then we assume this exponent to be 1. So, when dividing you will subtract 1 from 2.

x²/x = x

So, the answer to the problem is answer choice A. These functions multiply together to get you a final product of x.
