| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| (f o g)(x) or(g o f)(x) | f(gx) or g(fx) |
| a.(f+g)(x) b.(f-g)(x) c. (f*g)(x) d. (f/g)(x) f(x) = 3x-5 g(x)=24 -x | a 2x-19 b 4x-29 c. -3x^2 +77x -120 d. 3x-5/24-x |
| (f o g)(9) f(x)= 5x +4 and g(x)= 3x | (f o g)(9) = 139 |
| when you see (f o g)(3) it means f(gx)(3) f(x)= x-4 and g(x)=3+5 | if you have a problem like f(x) = x-4 g(x)= x+5 we start with the g(x) so g(x)= 3+5 = 8 substitute the 8 in the f(x) problem f(x) = 8 -4 = 4 |
| g(x)=-2x and h(x) squarroot x (g o h) (0) | 0 |
| f(x)=7x+12 g(x)=x+4 find (f o g)(x) and (g o f)(x) | (f o g)(x)= 7x+40 (g o f)(x)= 7x +16 |
| g(x)= x+9. Find f(x) so that h(x)= (f o g)(x). h(x)= squarroot of( x+9) +9 | f(x) = squarroot (x) +9 |
