Original question:
A system contains two particles: the spin of particle 1 is 3/2 and the spin of particle 2 is 1. Motion of particles can be ignored.
Part A asked to find the total spin state |5/2 3/2> using Clebsch-Gordon coefficients.
I did so, and came up with,

Hi,all.
My lecture said, two fermion can form a composite boson. two spin half plus together get 1.
Yes I agree, but i think that's depend on whose frame of reference.
say A and B is two fermions, C and D is another two fermions (observers). AB form a boson.

This is not so much a problem as it is a conceptual question. You're calculating the moment of inertia of a composite shape, let's say a square and a triangle. The square however has a hole inside of it. How does this change the computation of the moment of inertia? This is in a 2-D plane.

g(f(x)) = h(x)
4f(x) + y = 4x - 1

y = -1 - 16
y = -17
so, g(x)= 4x + y = 4x - 17
