Part 1: Operations of Functions

Perform the given operations on Functions

1. Given 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟕𝒙 + 𝟏𝟐 and 𝒈(𝒙) = 𝒙𝟐 − 𝟗

𝒇
Find (𝒇 + 𝒈)(𝒙), (𝒇 − 𝒈)(𝒙), (𝒇 ∙ 𝒈)(𝒙), and (𝒈) (𝒙).

(f + g) (x) = 2x^2 + 7x +3
(f - g) (x) = 7x +21
(f*g) (x) = (x^4 + 7x^3 + 3x^2 - 63x - 108)

2. Given 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝟐𝒙 + 𝟏 and 𝒈(𝒙) = 𝒙 − 𝟑

𝒇
Find (𝒇 + 𝒈)(𝒙), (𝒇 − 𝒈)(𝒙), (𝒇 ∙ 𝒈)(𝒙), and (𝒈) (𝒙).

(f + g) (x) = 3x -2
(f - g) (x) = x + 4
(f*g) (x) = (2x^2 - 5x - 3)
(f/g) (x) = (2x + 1)/(x-3)

8. Find [𝒈 ° 𝒉](𝒙) and [𝒉 ° 𝒈](𝒙), if they exist.

𝒈(𝒙) = 𝒙 + 𝟔 and 𝒉(𝒙) = 𝟑𝒙𝟐 .
g*h (x) = 3x^2 + 6
h*g (x) = 3x^2 + 36x + 108

9. Find the inverse of this relation.
