Here we need to find fog and gof, and they must be equal to x .

Let's check out fog

fog = f(g(x))


f((4x+1)/(x))

Substituting the value of g(x) in f(x) for x, we will get


(1)/((4x+1)/(x)-4) =(1)/((4x+1-4x)/(x))=x

Domain

Here the input function is g(x), and the denominator should not be 0. So x should not be zero. Therefore, domain is


(-\infty,0)U(0, \infty)

Now let's check gof

gof = g(f(x))

Here we need to insert f(x) in g(x) for x, and on doing that , we will get


(4((1)/(x-4))+1)/((1)/(x-4)) = (4+x-4)/(1)=x

Domain

Here the input function is f(x), and denominator should not be zero.

SO domain is


(- \infty,4)U(4, \infty)

Since fog = gof =x, so the given function are inverses of each other .
