BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu MTH55_Lec-58_sec_9-2a_Composite_Fcns.ppt 3 Bruce Mayer, PE Chabot College Mathematics Composite Functions In the real world, functions frequently occur in which some quantity depends on a variable that, in turn, depends on another variable. Functions such as these are called COMPOSITE FUNCTIONS

BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu MTH55_Lec-58_sec_9-2a_Composite_Fcns.ppt 5 Bruce Mayer, PE Chabot College Mathematics Composing a Function From The Diagram notice that since f takes the output from g we can combine f and g to get a function h: f (g (x)) = f (3x + 1) This Yields an eqn for h:

BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu MTH55_Lec-58_sec_9-2a_Composite_Fcns.ppt 6 Bruce Mayer, PE Chabot College Mathematics Composing a Function The function h is the composition of f and g and is denoted f○g (read “the composition of f and g,” “f composed with g,” or “f circle g”).

BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu MTH55_Lec-58_sec_9-2a_Composite_Fcns.ppt 23 Bruce Mayer, PE Chabot College Mathematics Example Automobile Sales A car dealer offers an 8% discount off the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) of x dollars for any new car on his lot. At the same time, the manufacturer offers a $4000 rebate on the purchase. a.Write a function f(x) that represents the price after the rebate. b.Write a function g(x) that represents the price after the dealer’s discount.
24
BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu MTH55_Lec-58_sec_9-2a_Composite_Fcns.ppt 24 Bruce Mayer, PE Chabot College Mathematics Example Automobile Sales c.Write the Functions (f○g)(x) & (g○f)(x). What do these Functions Represent? d.Calculate (g○f)(x) − (f○g)(x). Interpret this odd-looking expression Solution a. The MSRP is x dollars, rebate is $4k, so f(x) = x – 4000 represents the price of the car after the rebate.
25
BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu MTH55_Lec-58_sec_9-2a_Composite_Fcns.ppt 25 Bruce Mayer, PE Chabot College Mathematics Example Automobile Sales Solution b. The dealer’s discount is 8% of x, or 0.08x, so: g(x) = x – 0.08x = 0.92x represents the price of the car after the dealer’s discount. Soln c. This represents the price when the DEALER’S discount is is applied first.
26
BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu MTH55_Lec-58_sec_9-2a_Composite_Fcns.ppt 26 Bruce Mayer, PE Chabot College Mathematics Example Automobile Sales Solution c. (cont.) This represents the price when the MANUFACTURER’S rebate is applied first.
27
BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu MTH55_Lec-58_sec_9-2a_Composite_Fcns.ppt 27 Bruce Mayer, PE Chabot College Mathematics Example Automobile Sales Solution d. This equation shows that it will cost $320 MORE for any car, regardless of its price, if you apply the rebate first and then the discount second.
