Question

Consider the function f(x), g(x), h(x) as given below. Show that (fog)oh = fo(goh)

f(x) = x – 1, g(x) = 3x + 1 and h(x) = x

Sum

Solution

f(x) = x – 1, g(x) = 3x + 1 and h(x) = x2

f(x) = x – 1

g(x) = 3x + 1

f(x) = x2

(fog)oh = fo(goh)

L.H.S. = (fog)oh

fog = f(g(x)) = f(3x + 1) = 3x + 1 – 1 = 3x

(fog)oh = (fog)(h(x)) = (fog)(x2) = 3  …(1)

R.H.S. = fo(goh)

goh = g(h(x)) = g(x2) = 3x2 + 1

fo(goh) = f(3x2 + 1) = 3x2 + 1 – 1 = 3x  …(2)

L.H.S. = R.H.S. Hence it is verified.
