Correct answer: D

  1. We are given f(x)=4x+36x−4,x≠23f(x)=\frac{4x+3}{6x-4}, \qquad x\ne \frac{2}{3}f(x)=6x−44x+3​,x=32​ and g(x)=(f∘f)(x)=f(f(x)).g(x)=(f\circ f)(x)=f(f(x)).g(x)=(f∘f)(x)=f(f(x)).

    We need to find (g∘g∘g)(4).(g\circ g\circ g)(4).(g∘g∘g)(4).

  2. First compute f(f(x))f(f(x))f(f(x)).

    Let y=f(x)=4x+36x−4.y=f(x)=\frac{4x+3}{6x-4}.y=f(x)=6x−44x+3​. Then f(f(x))=f(y)=4y+36y−4.f(f(x))=f(y)=\frac{4y+3}{6y-4}.f(f(x))=f(y)=6y−44y+3​.

    Substitute y=4x+36x−4y=\dfrac{4x+3}{6x-4}y=6x−44x+3​: f(f(x))=4(4x+36x−4)+36(4x+36x−4)−4.f(f(x))=\frac{4\left(\frac{4x+3}{6x-4}\right)+3}{6\left(\frac{4x+3}{6x-4}\right)-4}.f(f(x))=6(6x−44x+3​)−44(6x−44x+3​)+3​.

  3. Simplify the numerator:

    =\frac{16x+12}{6x-4}+3 =\frac{16x+12+3(6x-4)}{6x-4} =\frac{16x+12+18x-12}{6x-4} =\frac{34x}{6x-4}.$$
  4. Simplify the denominator:

    =\frac{24x+18}{6x-4}-4 =\frac{24x+18-4(6x-4)}{6x-4} =\frac{24x+18-24x+16}{6x-4} =\frac{34}{6x-4}.$$
  5. Therefore, f(f(x))=34x6x−4346x−4=x.f(f(x))=\frac{\frac{34x}{6x-4}}{\frac{34}{6x-4}}=x.f(f(x))=6x−434​6x−434x​​=x.

    Hence, g(x)=x.g(x)=x.g(x)=x. So ggg is the identity function on its domain.

  6. Now compute repeated composition: g(g(g(4)))=4.g(g(g(4)))=4.g(g(g(4)))=4.

  7. Check options:

    • A: −4-4−4 ❌
    • B: 1920\frac{19}{20}2019​ ❌
    • C: −1920-\frac{19}{20}−2019​ ❌
    • D: 444 ✅

Therefore, the correct answer is 4.\boxed{4}.4​.
