Answer the following question based on the information given below. For three distinct real numbers $x, y$ and $z,$ let $f(x, y, z) = \min(\max(x, y), \max(y, z), \max(z, x))$ $g(x, y, z) = \max(\min(x, y), \min(y, z), \min(z, x))$ ... $f(x, y, z)/g(x, y, z)$ $(f(x, y, z) + h(x, y, z) - g(x, y, z))/j(x, y, z)$

Answer the following question based on the information given below. For real numbers $x, y,$ let $f(x, y) = \left\{\begin{matrix} \text{Positive square-root of}\; (x + y),\;\text{if}\; (x + y)^{0.5}\;\text{is real} \\ (x + y)^2,\;\text{otherwise} \end{matrix}\right.$ ... $f(x, y) - (g(x, y))^2$ $g(x, y) - (f(x, y))^2$ $f(x, y) + g(x, y)$
