In Problems 29 – 44, for the given functions f and g, find:

(a)fog

(b) gof

(c) fof

(d) gog

State the domain of each composite function.

f(x)=xx-1g(x)=-4x

Short Answer

Expert verified

a)f∘g=44+xand its domain is:{x|x≠0,x≠-4}

b) g∘f=-4(x-1)x, and its domain:x|x≠1,x≠0

c)f∘f=x and its domain is:x|x≠1.

d)g∘g=xand its domain is:x|x≠0

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information:

The functions are:

f(x)=xx-1g(x)=-4x

The domain of f(x)is: {x|x≠1}

The domain ofg(x)is:{x|x≠0}

02

Part (a)  Step 1. To find f ∘g and its domain:

f∘g(x)=f(g(x))=-4x-4x-1=-4-4-x=44+x

The domain off∘gis:{x|x≠-4,x≠0}

03

Part (b)  Step 1. To find g∘ f and its domain:

g∘f=g(f(x))=-4xx-1=-4(x-1)x

The domain of g∘fis: x|x≠0,x≠1.

04

Part (c)  Step 1. To find f∘f and its domain:

f∘f=f(f(x))=xx-1xx-1-1=xx-1x-x+1x-1=xx-1×x-11=x

Its domain is:x|x≠1

05

Part (c)  Step 1. To find g∘g and its domain:

g∘g=-4-4x=x

its domain is:x|x≠0
