Question

If the function $f : R \to R$ be given by $f (x) = x^{2} + 2$ and $g : R \to R$ be given by $g (x) = \frac{x}{x - 1}, x \neq 1$ ,
find fog and gof and hence fing fog(2) and gof(-3).

Solution

We have $f o g (x) = f [g (x)] = f (\frac{x}{x - 1}) = {(\frac{x}{x - 1})}^{2} + 2$

And, $f o g (2) = {(\frac{2}{2 - 1})}^{2} + 2 = 6$

Also, $g o f (x) = g [f (x)] = g (x^{2} + 2) = \frac{x^{2} + 2}{x^{2} + 2 - 1} = \frac{x^{2} + 2}{x^{2} + 1}$

And, $g o f (- 3) = \frac{(- 3)^{2} + 2}{(- 3)^{2} + 1} = \frac{11}{10}$

If the function f:R→R be given by f(x)=x2+2 and g:R→R be given by g(x)=xx−1,x≠1, find fog and gof and hence fing fog(2) and gof(-3).

We have fog(x)=f[g(x)]=f(xx−1)=(xx−1)2+2 And, fog(2)=(22−1)2+2=6 Also, gof(x)=g[f(x)]=g(x2+2)=x2+2x2+2−1=x2+2x2+1 And, gof(−3)=(−3)2+2(−3)2+1=1110
