for fx x 1 and gx 5x 4 find the following functions a f
for f(x) = x + 1, and g(x) = 5x +4 find the following functions
a. (f • g)(x)
b. (g • f)(x)
c. (f • g)(0)
Solution
a) (fog)(x) = f(g(x))
(fog)(x) = (5x+4)+1
(fog)(x) = 5x+5
b) (gof)(x) = g(f(x))
(gof)(x) = 5(x+1)+1
(gof)(x) = 5x+6
c) (fog)(0) = 5*0+5 = 5
(fog)(0) = 5
