Question
In 2 4, for the given functions f and g find: (a) 1f g2 122 (b) 1g f2 1 -22 (c) 1f f2 142 (d) 1g g2 1 -12 2. f1x2 = 3x - 5; g1x2 = 1 - 2x2 3. f1x2 = 2x + 2: g1x2 = 2x2 + 1 4. f1x2 = ex ; g1x2 = 3x - 3
Solution
The first step in solving 5 problem number 3 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: In 2 4, for the given functions f and g find: (a) 1f g2 122 (b) 1g f2 1 -22 (c) 1f f2 142 (d) 1g g2 1 -12 2. f1x2 = 3x - 5; g1x2 = 1 - 2x2 3. f1x2 = 2x + 2: g1x2 = 2x2 + 1 4. f1x2 = ex ; g1x2 = 3x - 3
From the textbook chapter Exponential and Logarithmic Functions you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
