Step-by-step solution

Given:

f1(x)=3x+22x+3{f}^{1}\left(x\right) = \dfrac{3x + 2}{2x + 3}

Now,

f2(x)=f1of1(x){f}^{2}\left(x\right) = {f}^{1}o{f}^{1}\left(x\right)

⇒f2(x)=3(3x+22x+3)+22(3x+22x+3)+3⇒ {f}^{2}\left(x\right) = \dfrac{3\left(\dfrac{3x + 2}{2x + 3}\right) + 2}{2\left(\dfrac{3x + 2}{2x + 3}\right) + 3}

⇒f2(x)=9x+6+4x+66x+4+6x+9⇒ {f}^{2}\left(x\right) = \dfrac{9x + 6 + 4x + 6}{6x + 4 + 6x + 9}

⇒f2(x)=13x+1212x+13⇒ {f}^{2} ( x ) = \dfrac{13x + 12}{12x + 13}

⇒f3(x)=3(13x+1212x+13)+22(13x+1212x+13)+3⇒ {f}^{3}\left(x\right) = \dfrac{3\left(\dfrac{13x + 12}{12x + 13}\right) + 2}{2\left(\dfrac{13x + 12}{12x + 13}\right) + 3}

⇒f3(x)=63x+6262x+63⇒ {f}^{3}\left(x\right) = \dfrac{63x + 62}{62x + 63}

⇒f4(x)=3(63x+6262x+63)+22(63x+6262x+63)+3⇒ {f}^{4}\left(x\right) = \dfrac{3\left(\dfrac{63x + 62}{62x + 63}\right) + 2}{2\left(\dfrac{63x + 62}{62x + 63}\right) + 3}

⇒f4(x)=313x+312312x+313⇒ {f}^{4}\left(x\right) = \dfrac{313x + 312}{312x + 313}

∴f5(x)=1563x+15621562x+1563=ax+bbx+a∴ {f}^{5}\left(x\right) = \dfrac{1563x + 1562}{1562x + 1563} = \dfrac{ax + b}{bx + a}

∴a+b=1563+1562=3125∴ a + b = 1563 + 1562 = 3125
