Solution :-

Let us prove that f [f {f (x)}] = x.

Firstly, let us solve for f {f (x)}.

f {f (x)} = \( \dfrac{1}{(1 – x)}\)

= \( \dfrac{ 1 }{ 1 }– \dfrac{1}{(1 – x)}\)

= \(\dfrac{ (1 – x) }{-x}\)

\( \dfrac{ (x-1) }{x}\)

f {f (x)} = \( \dfrac{ (x-1) }{x}\)

Now, we shall solve for f [f {f (x)}]

f [f {f (x)}] = f [\( \dfrac{ (x-1) }{x}\)]

= \(\dfrac{1 }{ \dfrac{(x – x + 1)}{x}}\)

=\(\dfrac{ 1 }{ (\dfrac{1}{x})}\)

f [f {f (x)}] = x

Hence proved.
