(i) Given as, f: R → R and g: R → R
Therefore, gof: R → R and fog: R → R
f(x) = x and g(x) = |x|
(gof)(x) = g(f(x))
= g(x)
= |x|
Now, (fog)(x) = f(g(x))
= f(|x|)
= |x|
(ii) Given as, f: R → R and g: R → R
Therefore, gof: R → R and fog: R → R
f(x) = x2 + 2x − 3 and g(x) = 3x − 4
(gof)(x) = g(f(x))
= g(x2 + 2x − 3)
= 3(x2 + 2x − 3) − 4
= 3x2 + 6x − 9 − 4
= 3x2 + 6x − 13
Now, (fog)(x) = f(g(x))
= f(3x − 4)
= (3x − 4)2 + 2(3x − 4) − 3
= 9x2 + 16 − 24x + 6x – 8 − 3
= 9x2 − 18x + 5
(iii) Given as, f: R → R and g: R → R
Therefore, gof: R → R and fog: R → R
f(x) = 8x3 and g(x) = x1/3
(gof)(x) = g(f(x))
= g(8x3)
= (8x3)1/3
= [(2x)3]1/3
= 2x
Now, (fog)(x) = f(g(x))
= f(x1/3)
= 8(x1/3)3
= 8x
