how to find the domain and range of a COMPOSITE function?

welcome to OS :)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the domain is a working of the original domains and exclusions for the new function

OpenStudy (amistre64):

since 4 is not defined in the domain of F, then the composite is not defined at x=4 either since F remains undefined

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you :D but for f(g(x)) the answer is D: [-3.5, 4] R: [0,2] but i don't know how to get it.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

f(g) is the composition; so wihtout further information the range of g is adapted as the domain of f for all range g in domain f

OpenStudy (amistre64):

f is defined for all x values from -4 to 3, g outputs are from 0 to 4 so the composition is only defined for all g from 0 to 3 is what im reading

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the range of f is therefore the section of f between 0 and 3, which gives outputs of 0 to 2

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i see what they did now
