The correct Answer is:
To find \( f(f(f(x))) \) where \( f(x) = \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find \( f(f(x)) \) 1. Start with the function \( f(x) = \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \). 2. Substitute \( f(x) \) into itself to find \( f(f(x)) \): \[ f(f(x)) = f\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}\right) \] 3. Now, replace \( x \) in the function \( f \) with \( \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \): \[ f\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}\right) = \frac{\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}}{\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}\right)^2}} \] 4. Simplify the expression inside the square root: \[ 1+\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}\right)^2 = 1+\frac{x^2}{1+x^2} = \frac{1+x^2+x^2}{1+x^2} = \frac{1+2x^2}{1+x^2} \] 5. Therefore, we have: \[ f(f(x)) = \frac{\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}}{\sqrt{\frac{1+2x^2}{1+x^2}}} = \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{1+x^2}{1+2x^2}} = \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}} \] ### Step 2: Find \( f(f(f(x))) \) 1. Now we need to find \( f(f(f(x))) = f\left(f(f(x))\right) = f\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}}\right) \). 2. Substitute \( \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}} \) into \( f \): \[ f\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}}\right) = \frac{\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}}}{\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}}\right)^2}} \] 3. Simplify the expression inside the square root: \[ 1+\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}}\right)^2 = 1+\frac{x^2}{1+2x^2} = \frac{1+2x^2+x^2}{1+2x^2} = \frac{1+3x^2}{1+2x^2} \] 4. Therefore, we have: \[ f(f(f(x))) = \frac{\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}}}{\sqrt{\frac{1+3x^2}{1+2x^2}}} = \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+2x^2}} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{1+2x^2}{1+3x^2}} = \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+3x^2}} \] ### Final Answer Thus, we conclude that: \[ f(f(f(x))) = \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+3x^2}} \]
