Lecture 4: The Composition
of Functions
SHMth1: General Mathematics
Accountancy, Business and
Management (ABM
Mr. Migo M. Mendoza
Formal Definition of Composition of Function
Let f and g be functions. The
composite function, denoted by (f ○ g), is
defined by:
f g ( x) f g ( x)
The process of obtaining a composite
function is called
function composition.
Composition of Function
It is another way of combining
functions. This method of combining
functions uses the output of one
function as the input for the second
function.
The Domain of the Composite Function
The domain of (f ○ g) is the
set of all numbers x in the
domain of g that g(x) is in
the domain of f.
Classroom Task 5:
