Arithmetic Combinations of Functions Sum: (f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) Difference: (f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) Product: (fg)(x) = f(x) ∙ g(x) Quotient: ( )(x) =
Compute f(x) = 4x + 2 and g(x) = 2x – 1 f(x) + g(x) f(x) - g(x) fg(x) ( )(x)
Now Try These f(x) = x and g(x) = 3x – 1 f(x) + g(x) f(x) - g(x) fg(x) ( )(x)
Composition of Two Functions The composition of the function f with the function g is given by (f o g)(x) = f(g(x)) The domain of (f o g) is the set of all x in the domain of g such that g(x) is in the domain of f.
Compositions Given: f(x) = x and g(x) = 3m, find f(g(x)). find g(f(x)).
Now Try These Given f(x) = 6x + 2 and g(x) = 2x – 1 find f(g(x)). find g(f(x)).
