Assignment 4 April‚ 7 2013 Mat222 In this week of class we have been taught how to evaluate‚ combine and find inverses of working relations or functions. We will be computing‚ composing‚ transforming and finding the inverse of some functions. We are working with the following functions: f(x) = 2x+5 g(x) = x2 -3 h(x) = (7-3x)/3 We have been asked to compute (f – h)(4). (f – h)(4) = f(4) – h(4) So we can evaluate each separately and then subtract. f(4)
