CONCEPT NOTES
COMPOSITION OF FUNCTION
( f ∘ g ) ( x ) =f ( g(x ) )
Read as “f composed with g of x ” or “ f of g of x” it means to copy the f function down but wherever you see an x, substitute in the g function.
Solving a composite function is similar to evaluating a function, there is a function that will be used as input and another function will be used as a machine, then
the output would be the composite function.
EXERCISES REFLECTION:
Direction: Given the functions below, solve for the following composite functions Differentiate the composition of functions and evaluating of
functions.
1. (g ∘ f )(x)
2. (f ∘ q)( x )
3. (f ∘ r )(x)
4. (f ∘ g)(x) PREPARED BY:
