Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Step 1: Understand the problem. You are tasked with finding the compositions of two functions, f(x) = x + 4 and g(x) = 2x + 1. Specifically, you need to compute (f ∘ g)(x), (g ∘ f)(x), (f ∘ g)(2), and (g ∘ f)(2). The notation (f ∘ g)(x) means f(g(x)), and (g ∘ f)(x) means g(f(x)).
Step 2: Compute (f ∘ g)(x). Substitute g(x) = 2x + 1 into f(x). This means replacing x in f(x) = x + 4 with g(x). The result is f(g(x)) = (2x + 1) + 4. Simplify the expression to get the formula for (f ∘ g)(x).
Step 3: Compute (g ∘ f)(x). Substitute f(x) = x + 4 into g(x). This means replacing x in g(x) = 2x + 1 with f(x). The result is g(f(x)) = 2(x + 4) + 1. Simplify the expression to get the formula for (g ∘ f)(x).
Step 4: Compute (f ∘ g)(2). Use the formula for (f ∘ g)(x) derived in Step 2 and substitute x = 2. Simplify the expression to find the value of (f ∘ g)(2).
Step 5: Compute (g ∘ f)(2). Use the formula for (g ∘ f)(x) derived in Step 3 and substitute x = 2. Simplify the expression to find the value of (g ∘ f)(2).

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Function Composition
Function composition involves combining two functions to create a new function. If f(x) and g(x) are two functions, the composition (fog)(x) means applying g first and then f to the result, expressed as f(g(x)). This concept is essential for solving the given exercises, as it requires understanding how to manipulate and evaluate the functions in sequence.

Function Composition
Evaluating Functions
Evaluating functions means substituting a specific value into a function to find its output. For example, if f(x) = x + 4, then f(2) = 2 + 4 = 6. This skill is crucial for calculating the values of (fog)(2) and (go f)(2) in the exercises, as it requires substituting values into the composed functions.

In Exercises 51–54, graph the given square root functions, f and g, in the same rectangular coordinate system. Use the integer values of x given to the right of each function to obtain ordered pairs. Because only nonnegative numbers have square roots that are real numbers, be sure that each graph appears only for values of x that cause the expression under the radical sign to be greater than or equal to zero. Once you have obtained your graphs, describe how the graph of g is related to the graph of f. f(x) = √x (x = 0, 1, 4, 9) and g (x) = √(x + 2) (x = = −2, −1, 2, 7)
