Composition of Functions

Given two functions, f(x) and g(x), both functions can create composite functions fg and gf.

 

Composite function fg

Composite function of fg can be formed by substituting the function of g into the function of f.

One condition must be satisfied, range of g is within the domain of f (RgDf)

 

Composite function gf

Composite function of gf can be formed by substituting the function of f into the function of g.

One condition must be satisfied, range f is within the domain of g (RfDg)
