    Ok. Will do. Going to relax at the beach this weekend. When it's humid like it is, my joints hurt a lot.

    Question 80

    (g^(-1) ° f^(-1))(-3) = g inverse (f inverse (-3))

    f(x) = (1/8)x - 3

    f^(-1) (x) = 8x + 24

    f^(-1) (-3) = 8(-3) + 24 = 0

    g(x) = x^3

    g^(-1) (x) = cr{x}

    Note: cr = cube root

    g inverse (f inverse (-3))

    I know that f inverse (-3) is 0.

    g inverse (0) = cr{0} = 0

    Answer is 0.

    Yes?
