1. ## Rewrite this function...

write f(x) = (2x^3 -7)^5 as 2 simpler functions

Does this mean rewrite $f(x)$ as:

$f(x)=g(h(x))$

where $g$ and $h$ are in some sense simpler?

3. You're question is kind of vague. Are you looking for something like this?

$f(x)=g(h(x))$

'

How about $h(x)=x^3$, then $g(x)=(2x-7)^5$ or maybe something simpler yet?

6. Shouldn't it be:

$f(x)=g(h(x))$

Where

$g(x)=x^{5}$ and $h(x)=(2x^{3}-7)$

There is no unique solution.
