VIEW ACTIVITY \(\PageIndex{1}\): Create a new function
Let \(A = \{a, b, c, d\}\), \(B = \{p, q, r\}\) and \(C = \{s, t, u, v\ } \). The arrow diagram in Figure 6.6 shows two functions: \(f: A \to B\) and \(g: B \to C\). Note that if \(x \in A\), then \(f(x) \in B\). Since \(f(x)\ in B\), we can apply the function \(g\) to \(f(x)\), and we get \(g(f(x))\), which is an element from \(C\).
Use this process to determine \(g(f(a))\), \(g(f(b))\), \(g(f(c))\) and \(g(f(d)) )\). Then explain how we can use this information to define a function from \(A\) to \(C\).

VIEW ACTIVITY \(\PageIndex{1}\): verbal descriptions of roles
The results of most of the real functions we studied in previous math courses were determined by mathematical expressions. In many cases, you can use these expressions to provide step-by-step verbal descriptions of how results should be calculated. for example yes
\(f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) é definido por \(f(x)=(3x+2)^3\),
We could describe how expenses are calculated as follows:
Step | verbal description | symbolic result |
---|---|---|
1 | Select an entry. | \(X\) |
2 | Multiply by 3. | \(3x\) |
3 | add 2 | \(3x + 2\) |
4 | I roll the result. | \((3x + 3)^3\) |
Complete the step-by-step verbal descriptions for each of the following roles.
- \(f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) por \(f(x)=\sqrt{3x^2+2}\), para cada \(x\in\mathbb{R} \).
- \(g:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) por \(g(x)=\sin(3x^2+2)\), para cada \(x\in\mathbb{R} \).
- \(h:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) por \(h(x)=e^{3x^2+2}\), para cada \(x\in\mathbb{R} \).
- \(G:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) por \(G(x)=\ln(x^4+3)\), para cada \(x\in\mathbb{R} \).
- \(k:\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}\) para \(k(x) = \sqrt[3] {\dfrac{\sin(4x + 3)}{x^2 + 1} }\), para cada \(x\in \mathbb{R}\).
composition of functions
There are several ways to combine two existing roles to create a new role. For example, in calculus we learned how to take the product and quotient of two functions, then how to use the product rule to find the derivative of a product of two functions and the quotient rule to find the derivative of the quotient of two. find functions. 🇧🇷 The chain rule in calculus has been used to find the derivative of the composition of two functions, and in this section we focus only on the composition of two functions. Next, we will see some results on the compositions of injections and superinjections.
The basic idea of function composition is that, whenever possible, the output of a function \(f\) is used as the input of a function \(g\). This can be denoted as "\(f\) followed by \(g\)" and is called the composition of \(f\) and \(g\). In previous math courses, we used this idea to find a formula for composing two real functions.
for example yes
\(f(x) = 3x^2 + 2\) y \(g(x) = sen x\)
then we can calculate \(g(f(x))\) as follows:
\[\begin{matriz} {rcl} {g(f(x))} &= & {g(3x^2 + 2)}\\ {} &= & {sin(3x^2 + 2).} \end{matriz}\]
In this case \(f(x)\), the output of function \(f\), was used as input of function \(g\). We now give the formal definition of the composition of two functions.
Definition: composite function
Let \(A\), \(B\) and \(C\) be nonempty sets and let \(f: A \to B\) and \(g: B \to C\) be functions. That onecompositionfrom \(f\) and \(g\) the function \(g \circ f: A \to C\) is defined by
\((g \circ f)(x) = g(f(x))\)
for all \(x \in A\). We often denote the function \(g \circ f\) ascomposite function.
It is useful to think of the composite function \(g \circ f\) as "\(f\) followed by \(g\)". Next, we refer to \(f\) as theinternal functionand \(g\) as theexternal function.
Composition and arrow diagrams
The concept of composition of two functions can be illustrated with arrow diagrams when the domain and range of the functions are small and finite sets. Although the term "compose" was not used at the time, it was done in the view activity \(\PageIndex{1}\) and another example is provided here.
Let \(A = \{a, b, c, d\}\), \(B = \{p, q, r\}\) and \(C = \{s, t, u, v\ } \). The arrow diagram in Figure 6.7 shows two functions: \(f: A \to B\) and \(g: B \to C\).
If we follow the arrows from the set \(A\) to the set \(C\), we use the outputs of \(f\) as inputs to \(g\) and get the arrow graph from \( A\ ) to \(C\) as shown in Figure 6.8. This diagram represents the composition of \(f\) followed by \(g\).
Progress Check 6.17 (Composition of two functions)
Let \(A = \{a, b, c, d\}\) and \(B = \{1, 2, 3\}\). Define the functions \(f\) and \(g\) as follows:
\(f: A \to B\) defined for \(f(a) = 2\), \(f(b) = 3\), \(f(c) = 1\), and \(f( (d) = 2\).
\(g: A \to B\) defined by \(g(1) = 3\). \(g(2) = 1\) and \(g(3) = 2\).
Create arrow diagrams for the functions \(f\), \(g\), \(g \circ f\), and \(g \circ g\).

decomposition functions
we use itchain of rulesin Analysis to find the derivative of a composite function. The first step in this process is to recognize a given function as a composite function. This can be done in many ways, but working on the view activity \(\PageIndex{2}\) can be used to decompose a function in a way that works well with the chain rule. Using the terms "internal function" and "external function" can also be helpful. The idea is that we use the last step of the process to represent the outer function and the previous steps to represent the inner function. So for the function
\(f:\mathbb{R}\a\mathbb{R}\) ou \(f(x)=(3x+2)^3\),
The last step in the verbal description table was to cut the result. This means that we will use the \(g\) function (the cube function) as the outer function and the previous steps as the inner function. We denote the inner function with \(h\). So we do \(h:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) times \(h(x)=3x+2\) and \(g:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R } }\) by \(g(x) = x^3\). After this
\[\begin{matriz} {rcl} {(g \circ h)(x)} &= & {g(h(x))} \\ {} &= & {g(3x + 2)} \\ {} &= & {(3x + 2)^3} \\ {} &= & {f(x).} \end{matriz}\]
We see that \(g \circ h = f\) and therefore "decompose" the function \(f\). It should be noted that there are other ways to write the function \(f\) as a composition of two functions, but the described method works well with the chain rule. In this case there is the chain rule
\[\begin{matriz} {rcl} {f \prime (x)} &= & {(g \circ h)\prime (x)} \\ {} &= & {g \prime (h(x) ) h \prime(x)} \\ {} &= & {3(h(x))^2 \cdot 3} \\ {} &= & {g(3x + 2)^2} \end{matriz }\]

Theorems about composite functions
If \(f: A \to B\) and \(g: B \to C\), then we can form the composite function \(g \circ f:A \to C\). At theSection 6.3, we learned about injections and superinjections. Now we examine what kind of function \(g \circ f\) will be if the functions \(f\) and \(g\) are injections (or surjections).

In Progress Check 6.19, we looked at some properties of composite functions related to injections, overjections, and bijections. The following theorem contains results that should illustrate these investigations. Some of the demonstrations will be integrated into the exercises.
Theorem 6.20.
Let \(A\), \(B\) and \(C\) be nonempty sets and assume that \(f: A \to B\) and \(g: B \to C\).
- If \(f\) and \(g\) are injections, then \((g \circ f): A \to C\) is an injection.
- If \(f\) and \(g\) are surjections, then \((g \circ f): A \to C\) is a surjection.
- If \(f\) and \(g\) are both bijections, then \((g \circ f): A \to C\) is a bijection.
Test
The proof of part (1) is exercise (6).
Part (3) is a direct consequence of the first two parts. We will discuss a process for doing a proof of part (2). Using the round-trip process, let's first consider the completion of the conditional statement in part (2). The goal is to prove that \(g \circ f\) is an overjection. Because of \((g \circ f): A \to C\) this is equivalent to proving it
For every \(c \in C\) there is a \(a \in A\), so \((g \circ f)(a) = c\).
Since this statement uses a universal quantifier in reverse, we use the element selection method and select any element \(c\) in the set \(C\). The goal now is to find a \(a \in A\) such that \((g \circ f)(a) = c\).
Now we can see the hypotheses. In particular, we assume that both \(f: A \to B\) and \(g: B \to C\) are surjections. Since we chose \(c \in C\) and \(g: B \to C\) is a surjection, we know that
existe um \(b \in B\) tal que \(g(b) = c\).
Now \(b \in B\) and \(f: A \to B\) is a surjection. And so
there is a \(a \in A\) with \(f(a) = b\).
If we calculate \((g \circ f)(a)\ now, we see that
\((g \circ f)(a) = g(f(a)) = g(b) = c\).
We can now write the proof as follows:
Proof of Theorem 6.20, Part (2)
Let \(A\), \(B\) and \(C\) be nonempty sets and assume that \(f: A \to B\) and \(g: B \to C\) are surjections. Let's prove that \(g \circ f:A \to C\) is an overjection.
Let \(c\) be any element of \(C\). Let's prove that there exists a \(a \in A\) such that \((g \circ f)(a) = c\). Since \(g: B \to C\) is an overjection, we conclude that it is
existe um \(b \in B\) tal que \(g(b) = c\).
Now \(b \in B\) and \(f: A \to B\) is a surjection. And so
there is a \(a \in A\) with \(f(a) = b\).
Now we see that
\[\begin{align*} {(g \circ f)(a)} &= & {g(f(a))} \\ {} &= & {g(b)} \\ {} &= & {c.} \end{align*}\]
Now we show that for every \(c \in C\) there exists a \(a \in A\) such that \((g \circ f)(a) = c\), and this proves that \ (g \circ f\) is a surjection.
Theorem 6.20 tells us that if \(f\) and \(g\) are special types of functions, then the composition of \(f\) followed by \(g\) is also that type of function. The next question is: "If the composition of \(f\) followed by \(g\) is an injection (or surjection), can we then infer \(f\) or \(g\)?" Theorem 6.21 gives a partial answer to this question. This theorem is examined and proved in the investigations and activities of this section. See exercise (10).
Theorem 6.21
Let \(A\), \(B\) and \(C\) be nonempty sets and assume that \(f: A \to B\) and \(g: B \to C\).
- If \(g\circ f:A\to C\) is an injection, then \(f:A\to B\) is an injection.
- If \(g \circ f: A \to C\) is a surjection, then \(f: A \to B\) is a surjection.
Exercise 6.4
- In our definition of the composition of two functions, \(f\) and \(g\), we require that the domain of \(g\) equals the range of \(f\). However, it is sometimes possible to construct the composite function \(g \circ f\) same as dom(\(g\)) \(\ne\) codom(\(f\)). leave for example
\[\begin{array}{lcl}{f:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}} &text{defined by }& {f(x) = x^2 + 1\text{, and let } } \\ {g:\mathbb{R} - \{0\} \to \mathbb{R}} &text{ defined by }& {g(x) = \dfrac{1}{x}.} \fin{ variety}\](a) Can \((g\circ f)(x)\) be determined for all \(x\in \mathbb {R}\)? Explain.
(b) In general, let \(f: A \to T\) and \(g: B \to C\).

FAQs
What is f ∘ G ∘ H? ›

What is the composition rule for limits? ›The limit of compositions theorem states that if either f is continuous at x = b or if g stays away from its limit near x = a, then the conclusion in iii. will follow. We should always check to see if at least one of the conditions in the theorem is true so that we can conclude iii.

For example, A 'Human' class is a composition of Heart and lungs. When the human object dies, nobody parts exist. The composition is a restricted form of Aggregation. In Composition, one class includes another class and is dependent on it so that it cannot functionally exist without another class.
How do you identify a function? ›If any vertical line drawn can cross the graph at a maximum of one point, then the graph is a function. If there is any place a vertical line can cross the graph at two or more points, the graph is not a function.
What is function in math grade 11? ›A technical definition of a function is: a relation from a set of inputs to a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output.
What are the 8 basic types of functions? ›
The eight types are linear, power, quadratic, polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and sinusoidal.
What are 4 parts of a function? ›- The Name - describes the purpose of the function. ...
- The Inputs - called parameters. ...
- The Calculation - varies for each function.
- The Output - Usually one (but sometimes zero or sometimes many) values that are calculated inside the function and "returned" via the output variables.
Constant Function: The polynomial function of degree zero. Linear Function: The polynomial function of degree one. Quadratic Function: The polynomial function of degree two. Cubic Function: The polynomial function of degree three.
What are the 4 key features of a function? ›Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity.
What is a composition function? ›In mathematics, function composition is an operation ∘ that takes two functions f and g, and produces a function h = g ∘ f such that h(x) = g(f(x)). In this operation, the function g is applied to the result of applying the function f to x.
What are the 3 parts of a composition? ›The main parts (or sections) to an essay are the intro, body, and conclusion.
What is S ∘ R? ›The composition of R and S is the relation consisting of ordered pairs (a,c) where a∈A, c∈C and there exists an element b∈B such that (a,b)∈R and (b,c)∈S. We write S∘R to denote this relation.
What is composition and expression? ›Composition: Expression and Understanding is designed to help students develop essential skills that will form the basis for their long-term development as a writer. Learning to write is a journey rather than a destination; at the heart of this journey is the need to know oneself.
How do you find the composition of two functions and their domain? ›- Find the domain of g.
- Find the domain of f.
- Find those inputs x in the domain of g for which g(x) is in the domain of f. That is, exclude those inputs x from the domain of g for which g(x) is not in the domain of f. The resulting set is the domain of f∘g.
