Question

Find the value of k, such that fog = gof

f(x) = 3x + 2, g(x) = 6x – k

Sum

Solution

f(x) = 3x + 2, g(x) = 6x – k

fog(x) = f(g(x))

= f(6x – k)

= 3(6x – k) + 2

= 18x – 3k + 2         …(1)

gof(x) = g(f(x))

= g(3x + 2)

= 6(3x + 2) – k

= 18x + 12 – k       ...(2)

(1) = (2)

⇒ 18x – 3k + 2 = 18x + 12 – k

2k = –10

k = –5
