Operations On Function: General Mathematics

This document discusses operations that can be performed on functions, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and composition. It provides definitions and examples of calculating the sum, difference, product, quotient, and composite of functions. The key operations are: 1. The sum of two functions f and g is the function f(x) + g(x). 2. The difference is f(x) - g(x). 3. The product is f(x) × g(x). 4. The quotient is f(x) / g(x), excluding values where g(x) = 0. 5. The composite function is obtained by substituting the output of

COMPOSITION OF FUNCTIONS:
In composition of functions, we will have a lot of
substitutions. You learned in previous lesson that to
evaluate a function, you will just substitute a certain
number in all of the variables in the given function.
Similarly, if a function is substituted to all variables in
another function, you are performing a composition of
functions to create another function.
 

Example:

Find the following:


a.
b.
c.
 

Example:
SOLUTION:
a.

Since
