How to solve Composite Functions

 In today's session we are going to discuss about How to solve Composite FunctionsIn mathematics we are familiar with the functions, they are the relations that relates the set of inputs with the set of outputs and have a property that denotes that every input have at least one output. So in this blog we are going to discuss the composite functions. Composite functions are the function in which one's function output is a input of another function. This can be understand easily by the following way: - → f() → g() →
Where f() and g() are the functions and the arrow ( → ) denotes that the result of function f() is going into the function g() and so on. Function composition symbol is the small circle now the above function can be written as g ∘ f (x) that means g(f(x)). Here the output of f(x) becoming the input of g(x). x means an input.
In simple words composite function are the combinations of function where we get the answer of first function and send it into the second function.
Let's take an example to understand more about the composite function. Here are two simple functions, which we will mark as f and g:
f(x) = 3x + 7 g(x) = 4x2
A composite function looks like this: f ∘ g (x).
f ∘ g(x) means f(g(x)), that means first we have to work on g(x), and then plug that answer into f.
Let's find f ∘ g(7)
That means find f (g(7))
First work on g(7).
Where g(x) = 4x2, then g(7) = 4(7)= 4(49) = 196
Now we have to find f(149)
f(x) = 3x + 7 so f(149) = 3(149) + 7 = 454
So f g(7) = 454
Money worksheets are helpful for the children to identify and count the different types of money of various countries.
