Question

Find the value of k, such that fog = gof

f(x) = 2x – k, g(x) = 4x + 5

Sum

Solution

f(x) = 2x – k, g(x) = 4x + 5

fog(x) = f(g(x)) = f(4x + 5) = 2(4x + 5) – k

= 8x + 10 – k  …(1)

gof(x) = g(f(x)) = g(2x – k) = 4(2x – k) + 5

= 8x – 4k + 5   ...(2)

(1) = (2)

⇒ 8x + 10 – k = 8x – 4k + 5

3k = – 5

k = `(-5)/(3)`
