If the answer is correct, it will accept it as correct but if it is incorrect the Unable To Understand Formula error pops up and I would prefer if it said Incorrect instead. Is there something that I have set up incorrectly? Below is the XML for the problem.
The problem creates a simple rational expression and asks the student to find the inverse function of that expression.
Thanks.
<problem>
<script type="loncapa/perl">$a = &random(2,6,1) * &random(-1,1,2);
$b = &random(7,9,1) * &random(-1,1,2);
$c = &random(7,9,1) * &random(-1,1,2);
$d = &random(2,6,1) * &random(-1,1,2);
$num1 = "$a * x + $b";
$den1 = "$c * x + $d";
#simplify the expression
$numerator=&cas('maxima',"num(trigsimp(($num1) / ($den1)))");
$denominator=&cas('maxima',"denom(trigsimp(($num1) / ($den1)))");
$function = "($numerator)/($denominator)";
@args = ($function);
</script><startouttext />Given the function <m eval='on'>f(x) = \Large\frac{$numerator}{$denominator}</m>, determine the equation of the inverse function.
<br />
Answer: <m>$f^{-1}(x)=$</m><endouttext />
<mathresponse answerdisplay="Good" cas="maxima" args="@args">
<answer>f(x):=RESPONSE[1];
g(x):=LONCAPALIST[1];
is(equal(f(g(x)),x));</answer>
