COMPOSITION
of FUNCTIONS (Session 2)
A Subtopic Of Operations On Functions
What we should learn 2

Learning Competency:
➢ The learner performs addition, subtraction,
multiplication, division, and composition of functions.
(M11GM-Ia-3)

Specific Learning Objectives:


➢ To be able to perform composition of functions.
Composition of Functions 3

Let 𝑓 and 𝑔 be functions.


Their composition, denoted by 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔, is the function denoted by

𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥 = 𝑓(𝑔 𝑥 )

Note: The function 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥 is a new function derived from combining 𝑓(𝑥) and 𝑔 𝑥
and is called a composite function.

Composition of Functions
Example 5

1. Given:
𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 + 4
𝑔 𝑥 =𝑥+2

Required:
a. 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥
b. 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 2
Solution: 6
a. 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥 = 𝑓(𝑔 𝑥 ) ➢ definition of composition of functions
a. 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥 = (𝑔(𝑥))2 +4(𝑔(𝑥)) + 4 ➢ replace all the 𝑥 in 𝑓(𝑥) with 𝑔(𝑥)
a. 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥 = (𝑥 + 2)2 +4(𝑥 + 2) + 4 ➢ substitute the value of 𝑔(𝑥)
a. 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥 = 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 + 4 + 4𝑥 + 8 + 4 ➢ simplify
a. 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥 = 𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 + 4𝑥 + 4 + 8 + 4 ➢ combine like terms
a. 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 𝑥 = 𝑥 2 + 8𝑥 + 16

b. 𝑓∘𝑔 𝑥 = 𝑥 2 + 8𝑥 + 16 at 𝑓 ∘ 𝑔 2
b. 𝑓∘𝑔 2 = (2)2 +8 2 + 16 ➢ replace all the 𝑥 with 2
b. 𝑓∘𝑔 2 = 4 + 16 + 16 ➢ simplify
b. 𝑓∘𝑔 2 = 36
