QA – Algebraic Function

ALGEBRAIC OPERATIONS ON REAL VALUED FUNCTIONS

Addition : If f and g are two functions, then the sum of the functions (f + g) (x) = f (x) + g (x)
is defined only for those values of x for which both f and g are defined i.e.,

∴ Dom (f + g) = Dom f ∩ Dom g

Subtraction : If f and g are two functions, then the difference of the functions (f – g)x = f (x)
– g(x)
Where
∴ Dom of (f – g) = Dom f ∩ Dom g

Multiplication : If k is any real number and f is a function, then kf is defined for all
f by
(kf)x = k f (x)
If f and g are two functions, then the (fg)(x) is defined for all
by
(fg) = f (x) g (x)
∴ Dom of (fg)x = Dom f ∩ Dom g

Division : If f and g are two functions, then f / g is defined for all {x :

g(x) ≠ 0}by
(f / g) x =
∴ Dom (f / g) x = Dom f ∩ Dom g – {x : x and g(x) = 0}
