7. EXAMPLE 2 Let f(x) = 5x – 7 and g(x) = x 2 + 3x – 2. Find f(a + b), f(x 2 – 9), g(4a), and g(3x + 1) f(a + b) =5(a + b) – 7 =5a + 5b – 7 f(x 2 – 9) =5(x 2 – 9) – 7 =5x 2 – 45 – 7 =5x 2 – 52 f(a + b) =5(a + b) – 7 =5a + 5b – 7 f(x 2 – 9) =5(x 2 – 9) – 7 =5x 2 – 45 – 7 =5x 2 – 52

8. EXAMPLE 2 Let f(x) = 5x – 7 and g(x) = x 2 + 3x – 2. Find f(a + b), f(x 2 – 9), g(4a), and g(3x + 1) g(4a) =(4a) 2 + 3(4a) – 2 =16a 2 + 12a – 2 g(3x + 1) =(3x + 1) 2 + 3(3x + 1) – 2 =9x 2 + 6x + 1 + 9x + 3 – 2 =9x 2 + 15x + 2 g(4a) =(4a) 2 + 3(4a) – 2 =16a 2 + 12a – 2 g(3x + 1) =(3x + 1) 2 + 3(3x + 1) – 2 =9x 2 + 6x + 1 + 9x + 3 – 2 =9x 2 + 15x + 2

9. Composition An operation that substitutes the second function into the first function. In symbols: g ◦ f = g(f(x)). Read g ◦ f as “the composition of g with f” or “g composed with f”. DefinitionDefinition

10. Mapping diagrams provide a useful representation of composition. Let f(x) = 3x – 5 and g(x) = x 2 – 9, and let D f = {5, 3, -1, 0}. 0 3 5 0 3 5 -8 -5 4 10 -8 -5 4 10 55 16 7 91 55 16 7 91 DfDf RfDgRfDg RgRg f 3x – 5 g x 2 – 9 g ◦ f

11. From the circle diagram you can see that g ◦ f = {(-1, 55), (0, 16), (3, 7), (5, 91)}. A function rule for the composition of two functions could also be used to find the ordered pairs. The rule can be found from the rules of the original functions. To find the rule for the composite function substitute the second function into the first as illustrated in Example 3.

The rule can be found from the rules of the original functions. To find the rule for the composite function substitute the second function into the first as illustrated in Example 3.

12. Use the rule to check that it obtains the same set of ordered pairs: {(-1, 55), (0, 16), (3, 7), (5, 91)}. Check for the ordered pair (3, 7). (g ◦ f)(x) =9x 2 – 30x + 16 (g ◦ f)(3) =9(3 2 ) – 30(3) + 16 =81 – 90 + 16 =7 (g ◦ f)(x) =9x 2 – 30x + 16 (g ◦ f)(3) =9(3 2 ) – 30(3) + 16 =81 – 90 + 16 =7=7

13. EXAMPLE 3 Find (g ◦ f)(x) if f(x) = 3x – 5 and g(x) = x 2 – 9. (g ◦ f)(x) =g(f(x)) =g(3x – 5) =(3x – 5) 2 – 9 =9x 2 – 30x + 25 – 9 =9x 2 – 30x + 16 (g ◦ f)(x) =g(f(x)) =g(3x – 5) =(3x – 5) 2 – 9 =9x 2 – 30x + 25 – 9 =9x 2 – 30x + 16
