Definition
Given two functions f and g , the composite function, denoted by f ◦ g(read as “f composed of g” or “f of g”), is defined by
(f ◦ g)(x) = f (g(x))
The domain of f ◦ g is the set of all numbers x in the domain of g suchthat g(x) is in the domain of f .

(a) (f ◦ g)(1)
(b) (f ◦ g)(3)
(c) (f ◦ g)(−2)

Finding the Domain of (f ◦ g)(x)

Definition
A function is one-to-one if for any two inputs in the domain they map totwo different outputs in the range. That is, if x1 6= x2 are in the domainthen f (x1) 6= f (x2).
![Page 13: PreCalculus Notes - MAT 129 Chapter 6: Exponential and ... - Chapter 6 Slides.pdf · PreCalculus Notes MAT 129 Chapter 6: Exponential and Logarithmic Functions David J. Gisch Department](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021800/5e247bda57447c39b1694b1c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Theorem
When looking at the graph of a functions f , if every horizontal lineintersects the graph in at most one point then f is one-to-one.
![Page 14: PreCalculus Notes - MAT 129 Chapter 6: Exponential and ... - Chapter 6 Slides.pdf · PreCalculus Notes MAT 129 Chapter 6: Exponential and Logarithmic Functions David J. Gisch Department](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021800/5e247bda57447c39b1694b1c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Theorem
If f is one-to-one, then f is said to have an inverse f −1 such that iff (x) = y then f −1(y) = x.
Therefore, if you know that the graph of f (a 1-1 function) contains thepoint (2,−3), then you know f −1 contains the point (−3, 2).
![Page 15: PreCalculus Notes - MAT 129 Chapter 6: Exponential and ... - Chapter 6 Slides.pdf · PreCalculus Notes MAT 129 Chapter 6: Exponential and Logarithmic Functions David J.

Theorem
The graph of f and f −1 are symmetric with respect to the line y = x.
Example
Given the graph, graph the inverse.

Theorem
Given f and its inverse f −1 then for all values x we have
(f ◦ f −1)(x) = f (f −1(x)) = x and (f −1 ◦ f )(x) = f −1(f (x)) = x
Example
Check if f (x) = 3x − 4 and g(x) = 13x + 4
3 are inverses.

Definition
A logarithmic function to the base a, where a > 0 and a 6= 1, is denotedby y = loga x (read as “log base a of x”) and is defined by
y = loga x if and only if x = ay
The domain of a logarithmic function of this form is x > 0.

Example
Change to the alternate form.
(a) For example, 34 = 81, so 4 = log3 81.

Domain of a Logarithmic Function
Note:
The reason this is true is because the logarithmic function y = loga x isdefined as the inverse function of y = ax . For any inverse f −1(x) thedomain is the range of f (x). In this case f (x) is an exponential functionwhich has the range of (0,∞).
Domain Range
f (x) = ax (−∞,∞) (0,∞)
f −1(x) = loga x (0,∞) (−∞,∞)

Graphs of Logarithmic Functions
Recall that if f (x) contains the point (a, b), then f −1(x) contains thepoint (b, a). Thus, as logarithmic functions are inverses of exponentialfunctions we can reflect (about y = x) the graph an exponential functionto create the graph of a logarithmic function.

Immediately, the temperature of the body is taken and isfound to be 80◦F . The detective checks the programmable thermostat andfinds that the room has been kept at a constant 68◦F for the past 3 days.
After evidence from the crime scene is collected, the temperature of thebody is taken once more and found to be 78.5◦F . This last temperaturereading was taken exactly one hour after the first one. The next day thedetective is asked by another investigator, “What time did our victim die?”

Logistic Model
Logistic Model
In a logistic model, the population P after time t obeys the equation
P(t) =c
1 + ae−bt
where a, b, and c are constants with c > 0. The model is growth if b > 0and decay if b < 0.
The domain is all real numbers, and the range is (0, c).
There are horizontal asymptotes of y = 0 and y = c ; hence the range.
We call c the carrying capacity as it is the maximum that apopulation can grow due to restraints.
