  1. Chapter 1:Functions and Graphs Section 1-4: Building Functions from Functions

  2. Objectives • You will learn about: • Combining functions algebraically • Composition of functions • Relations and implicitly defined functions • Why: • Most of the functions that you will encounter in calculus and in real life can be created by combining or modifying other functions

  3. Vocabulary • Composition f of g • Relation • Implicitly

  4. Sum, Difference, Product and Quotient • Let f and g be two functions with intersecting domains. Then, for all values of x in the intersection, the algebraic combinations of f and g are defined by the following rules: • Sum:_________________ • Difference:_____________ • Product:_______________ • Quotient:______________

  5. Example 1Defining New Functions Algebraically • Let:

  6. Composition of Functions • Let f and g be two functions such that the domain of f intersects the range of g. The composition f of g, denoted (f ᵒ g)(x) is defined by the rule: • (f ᵒ g)(x) = f(g(x))

  7. Example 2Composing Functions • Let: Find (f ᵒ g)(x) and (g ᵒ f)(x) and verify that they are not the same.

  8. Example 3Finding the Domain of a Composition Find the domains of the composite functions: (g ᵒ f)(x) and (f ᵒ g)(x).

  9. Example 4Decomposition of Functions • For each function h, find the functions f and g such that h(x) = f(g(x)).

  10. Example 5Modeling with Function Composition • In the medical procedure known as angioplasty, doctors insert a catheter into a heart vein (through a peripheral vein) and inflate a small, spherical balloon on the tip of the catheter. Suppose the balloon is inflated at a constant rate of 44 cubic millimeters per second. • Find the volume after t seconds. • When the volume is V, what is the radius r? • Write an equation that gives the radius r as a function of time. What is the radius after 5 s?

  11. Relation • The general term for a set of ordered pairs (x, y) is a relation. • If the relation happens to relate a single value of y to each value of x, then the relation is also a function.

  12. Example 6Verifying Pairs in a Relation • Determine which ordered pairs (2, -5), (1, 3), and (2, 1) are in the relation defined by x2y + y2 = 5. • Is the relation a function?

  13. Implicitly • Recall the circle x2 + y2 = 4. • This relation itself is not a function, but it can be split into two equations that do define functions.
