Question

If f(x)={x24x+3,x<2x4,x2 g(x)={x3,x<3x2+2x+2,x3 Determine fg(1)

Solution

The critical points are 2, 3 and so we redefine the functions for x<2,2x<3,x>3.
f(x)=x24x+3,x<2x4,2x<3x4,x3

g(x)x3,x<2x3,2x<3x2+2x+2,x>3
f+g=x23x,x<22x7,2x<3x2+2x2,x3

fg=⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪x24x+3x3=x1,x<2x4x3,2x<3x4x2+3x+2,x3
So, when x=1,x(2,)
fg(1)=11=0
