Chapter 1.2 Operations of Functions

The document defines functions and operations that can be performed on functions, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and composition. It provides examples of applying each operation to various functions, where f(x) = 2x^2 + 3, g(x) = 4x + 1, and h(x) = x^2 + 3x - 5. The key operations are: adding/subtracting functions by adding/subtracting corresponding terms, multiplying functions by multiplying corresponding terms, dividing functions by dividing corresponding terms, and composition which applies the inner function first before applying the outer function. An activity at the end applies the various operations to additional functions.

FUNCTIONS

Definition:
A relation is a set of ordered pairs of
numbers. The set of all first elements that occur in
a relation is the domain of the relation, and the set
of all second elements is the range of the relation.
Definition:
A function is a relation in which no two
ordered pairs have the same first element and
distinct second elements.
OPERATIONS OF
FUNCTIONS
The sum of f + g

(f + g) (x) = f(x) + g(x)

This just says that to find the sum of two


functions, add them together. You should simplify
by findings like terms.
Examples:
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

1. f(x) + g(x)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

2. f(x) + h(x) + g(x)


Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

3. f(3) + h(-1)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

4. f(2) + h(-4)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

5. f(5) + h(2) + g(3)


The difference of f – g
(f – g) (x) = f(x) – g(x)
To find the difference between two functions,
subtract the first from the second.
Caution: Make sure you distribute the – to
each term of the second function. You should
simplify by combining like terms.
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

1. f(x) – h(x)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

2. f(x) – h(x) – g(x)


Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

3. f(3) – h(1)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

4. f(2) – g(-4)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

5. f(5) – h(2) – g(3)


The product of f · g
(f · g) (x) = f(x) · g(x)
To find the product of two functions, put
parenthesis around them and multiply each term
from the first function to each term of the second
function.
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

1. f(x) · h(x)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

2. f(x) · h(x) · g(x)


Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

3. f(2) · h(3)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 3 ; g(x) = 4x + 1 ; h(x) = x2 + 3x – 5

4. f(1) · h(-2) · g(3)


The quotient of f / g
(f / g) (x) = f(x) / g(x)

To find the quotient of two functions, put the first


one over the second.
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 4x ; g(x) = x + 2 ; h(x) = 2x

1. f(x) / h(x)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 4x ; g(x) = x + 2 ; h(x) = 2x

2. f(x) / g(x)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 4x ; g(x) = x + 2 ; h(x) = 2x

3. f(2) / g(6)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 4x ; g(x) = x + 2 ; h(x) = 2x

4. g(3) / g(2)
Composition of
Functions
The Composition Function

(f ͦ g) (x) = f (g (x))
This is read “f composition g” and to find the
composition of f and g at a specific value of x, you
first apply g to x, and then you apply f to the result.
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 4x ; g(x) = x + 2 ; h(x) = 2x

1. f(x) ͦ h(x)
Given that:
f(x) = 2x2 + 4x ; g(x) = x + 2 ; h(x) = 2x

f(x) = 2x2 + 4x ; g(x) = x + 2 ; h(x) = 2x

Given that:
f(x) = 3x + 3; g(x) = x2 – 2x + 1; h(x) = 2x2 – 2; j(x) = x2 – 1

1. f (x) + g(x) – j(x) 6. f (x) ∙ g (x) ∙ h (x)


2. g (2) – h (-3) – j (-5) 7. g (5) / h (2)
