Composite Functions Exam Practice

Q1.

g( x ) = a ร— bx^ where a and b are constants.

g(0) = 8 and g(3) = 343 Work out the value of g(1) (Total 4 marks)

Q2.

f( x ) = x^2 + 6 x

g( x ) = 2 x + 4

(a) Show that fg( x ) = 4 x^2 + 28 x + 40

(3)

(b) Solve fg( x ) = โ€“

(3) (Total 6 marks)

Q3.

f( x ) = 3 x and g( x ) = x^2

Circle the expression for fg( x )

3 x^2 9 x^2 3 x^3 9 x^4

(Total 1 mark)

Q4.

For all values of x , f( x ) = 2 x^2 + 3 g( x ) = x + 4

(a) Show that fg( x ) = 2 x^2 + 16 x + 35
