f:x-->2x^2+1 and g:x--> 2x/(x-1) where x is not equal to 1. express the composite function gf as simply as possible

need to put f equation into g equation so replace x in g equation with 2x^2+1 gf : x --> 2(2x^2+1) / ((2x^2+1)-1) then need to simplify (expand brackets) 4x^2 + 2 / 2x^2 divide all by 2 (common factor) gf : x --> (2x^2 +1) / x^2
