Let’s talk about Operations and Composition!
Jenn, Founder Calcworkshop®, 15+ Years Experience (Licensed & Certified Teacher)
Now that we understand Functions and Relations, let’s broaden our knowledge a bit.
First, we are going to perform arithmetic Operations on Functions:
- sum
- difference
- product
- quotient
Our objective is to either simplify each expression or evaluate this new function given a specified value.
Composite Function Notation
Next, we will focus on Composite Functions.
The Composition of Functions is basically when we substitute one function into another.
So, rather than plugging in a single number in for x, we are now going to plug in an entire function.
Fancy, as Purple Math calls it.
We will look at how to simplify composite functions algebraically, as well as how to evaluate using graphs and tables.
