    If\[f(x)=\frac{2x+1}{3x-2}\],then\[fof(2)\]is equal to:

    A) \[1\]                                     

    B) \[3\]

    C)  \[4\]                                    

    D)  \[2\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Given that                 \[f(x)=\frac{2x+1}{3x-2}\] \[\therefore \]  \[fof(x)=f(f(x))\]                 \[=\frac{2\left( \frac{2x+1}{3x-2} \right)+1}{3\left( \frac{2x+1}{3x-2} \right)-2}\]                 \[=\frac{4x+2+3x-2}{6x+3-6x+4}\]                 \[=\frac{7x}{7}=x\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[fof(2)=2\] Alternate Solution: Since,    \[f(x)=\frac{2x+1}{3x-2}\] Now,     \[f(2)=\frac{2\times 2+1}{3\times 2-2}=\frac{5}{4}\] \[\therefore \]  \[fof(2)=f(f(2))\]                 \[=f\left( \frac{5}{4} \right)=\frac{2\times \frac{5}{4}+1}{3\times \frac{5}{4}-2}\]                 \[=\frac{\frac{10}{4}+1}{\frac{15}{4}-2}=\frac{14}{7}\]                 \[=2\]
