    Solution of inequality of composite function involving inverse

    I can solve (i), I got x = -1.6 For (ii), I did like this: $$(f^{-1} o ~g)(x)<1$$ $$g(x)<f(1)$$ But it is wrong, the correct one should be ##g(x) > f(1)##. Why? Thanks

    I Get the time axis right in an inverse Fast Fourier Transform

    Hi I would like to transform the S-parameter responce, collected from a Vector Network Analyzer (VNA), in time domain by using the Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) . I use MATLAB IFFT function to do this and the response looks correct, the problem is that I do not manage to the time scaling...

    Why is [G] Sandwiched by Epsilon Inverses in Tensor Inverse Calculation?

    Clearly, they used the binomial expansion on this; however, I cannot figure out why [G] is sandwiched by the epsilon inverses: $$\varepsilon^{'-1}=1/(\varepsilon+i\epsilon_{0}[G])\approx(1-i\epsilon_{0}[G]\varepsilon^{-1})\varepsilon^{-1}$$
