Question

Let f(x) = 16 - x^2, g(x) = 4 - x. Find (fg)(x) and its domain.

Answer 1

Answer:

(fg)(x) = x^3-4x^2-16x+64, D: All Real Numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

(fg)(x) = f(x) x g(x)

= 16-x^2(4-x)

=64-16x-4x+x^3

(fg)(x) = x^3-4x^2-16x+64

Domain is all real numbers because you can substitute any real number for x and the function would still work.
