Finding the Value of a Composite Function
Finding the Value of a Composite Function Algebraically
- input the value of x into the inside function, get the output
- use the output as the input of the outside function
- the output of the outside function is the value
Finding the Value of a Composite Function Graphically
- look at the graph of the inside function at the given x value, find the value of y
- that y value becomes the x value of the outside function
- look at the graph of the outside function at that x value, find the value of y
- the y value of the outside function is the value
