Algebra II 5.5: Perform Function Operations
Operations on Functions You have learned how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide polynomial expressions. These operations can also be defined for functions.
Example 2 Let f(x) = 3x3 – 2x2 + 5 and g(x) = x3 – 3x2 + 4x – 2 . Find (f – g)(x) and state the domain. Then evaluate the difference when x = -2.
Addition and Subtraction • Let f(x) = x+5 and g(x) = x2 – 5x + 2 Find f(x) + g(x) • Let f(x) = -3x1/3 + 4x1/2 and g(x) = 5x1/3 + 4x1/2 Find f(x) – g(x)
Multiplication and Division • Let f(x) = 4x2/3 and g(x) = 5x1/2 Find g(x) . f(x) Find g(x)/f(x)
Do Now: f(x)=4x1/2, g(x)=-9x1/2, h(x)=6x, m(x)=x3/4 • f(x) + g(x) • f(x) – g(x) • h(x)m(x) • h(x)/m(x)
Composition of Functions Find the following: f(0) = g(0) = f(1) = g(1) = f(20) = g(20) = Think: f(g(x)) g(f(x))
Composition of Functions The composition of a function g with a function f is: h(x) = g(f(x))
Perform the indicated operation. • Let f(x) = 2x2 and g(x) = 3x – 5 Find g(f(x)) Find f(g(x))
Find the indicated value. • Let f(x) = 4x + 7 and g(x) = 12x – 1 Find g(f(3)) Find f(g(3))
Find the indicated value. • Let g(x) = -x2 and h(x) = Find h(h(-4)) Find g(h(8))
Perform the indicated operation. • Let f(x) = 2x2 – x , g(x) = , and h(x) = Find f(g(x))
Perform the indicated operation. • Let f(x) = 2x2 – x , g(x) = , and h(x) = Find g(h(x))
Perform the indicated operation. • Let f(x) = 2x2 – x , g(x) = , and h(x) = Find f(h(x))
