3 What You Should Learn Add, subtract, multiply, and divide functions. Find compositions of one function with another function. Use combinations of functions to model and solve real-life problems.

4 Arithmetic Combinations of Functions Just as two real numbers can be combined by the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to form other real numbers, two functions can be combined to create new functions. When f (x) = 2x – 3 and g (x) = x 2 – 1 you can form the sum, difference, product, and quotient of f and g as follows.

5 Arithmetic Combinations of Functions f (x) + g (x) = (2x – 3) + (x 2 – 1) Sum = x 2 + 2x – 4 f (x) – g (x) = (2x – 3) – (x 2 – 1) Difference = –x 2 + 2x – 2

6 Arithmetic Combinations of Functions f (x)  g (x) = (2x – 3)(x 2 – 1) Product = 2x 3 – 3x 2 – 2x + 3 Quotient

7 Arithmetic Combinations of Functions The domain of an arithmetic combination of functions f and g consists of all real numbers that are common to the domains of f and g. In the case of the quotient there is the further restriction that g (x)  0.

8 Example 1 – Finding the Sum of Two Functions Given f (x) = 2x + 1 and g (x) = x 2 + 2x – 1, find (f + g) (x). Then evaluate the sum when x = 2. Solution: (f + g) (x) = f (x) + g (x) = (2x + 1) + (x 2 + 2x – 1) = x 2 + 4x When x = 2, the value of this sum is (f + g) (2) = (2) = 12.

9 Compositions of Functions

10 Compositions of Functions Another way of combining two functions is to form the composition of one with the other. For instance, when f (x) = x 2 and g (x) = x + 1, the composition of f with g is f (g (x)) = f (x + 1) = (x + 1) 2. This composition is denoted as f  g and is read as “f composed with g”.

11 Compositions of Functions Figure 1.50

12 Example 5 – Forming the Composition of f with g Find (f  g)(x) for and g (x) = x – 1, x  1. If possible, find (f  g)(2) and (f  g)(0). Solution: The composition of f with g is (f  g) (x) = f (g (x)) = f (x – 1) = Definition of f  g Definition of g (x) Definition of f (x)

13 Example 5 – Solution The domain of f  g is [1, ) (See Figure 1.51). So, (f  g) (2) = = 1 is defined, but (f  g)(0) is not defined because 0 is not in the domain of f  g. Figure 1.51 cont’d

14 Application

15 Example 10 – Bacteria Count The number N of bacteria in a refrigerated petri dish is given by N(T) = 20T 2 – 80T + 500, 2  T  14 where T is the temperature of the petri dish (in degrees Celsius). When the petri dish is removed from refrigeration, the temperature of the petri dish is given by T (t) = 4t + 2, 0  t  3 where t is the time (in hours). a. Find the composition N (T(t)) and interpret its meaning in context.

16 Example 10 – Bacteria Count b. Find the number of bacteria in the petri dish when t = 2 hours. c. Find the time when the bacteria count reaches Solution: a. N (T(t)) = 20(4t + 2) 2 – 80(4t + 2) = 20(16t t + 4) – 320t – = 320t t + 80 – 320t – = 320t The composite function N (T(t)) represents the number of bacteria as a function of the amount of time the petri dish has been out of refrigeration. cont’d

17 Example 10 – Solution b. When t = 2 the number of bacteria is N = 320(2) = = c. The bacteria count will reach N = 2000 when 320t = You can solve this equation for t algebraically as follows. 320t = t 2 = 1580 cont’d

18 Example 10 – Solution So, the count will reach 2000 when t  2.22 hours. Note that the negative value is rejected because it is not in the domain of the composite function. cont’d

19 Example 10 – Solution To confirm your solution, graph the equation N = 320t as shown in Figure Then use the zoom and trace features to approximate N = 2000 when t  2.22 as shown in Figure Figure 1.54Figure 1.55 cont’d
