Original question and givens

Let f:A→B and g:D→C be the explicit total functions A={7, 8, 9}, B={-21, 0, 22}, D={118}, C={-38, 1, 39}, f=[(7, 0), (8, 22), (9, -21)], and g=[(118, 1)]. List {x∈A:f(x)∈D}.

  • G001 — Let f:A→B and g:D→C be the explicit total functions A={7, 8, 9}, B={-21, 0, 22}, D={118}, C={-38, 1, 39}, f=[(7, 0), (8, 22), (9, -21)], and g=[(118, 1)]. List {x∈A:f(x)∈D}.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

(g∘f)(x)

After

g(f(x)):apply f first,then g

Conditions: none

The function on the right acts first;composition is not multiplication of two function values.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: composition_order · Uses: G001

S002 · implies

Before

f:A→B;g:D→C;D={118}

After

both tables are total on their declared domains

Conditions: none

Audit totality and codomain membership for each table;g's domain D need not equal f's codomain B.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: composition_totality_guard · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · implies

Before

x=7;f(x)=0;D={118}

After

f(x)∈D=No

Conditions: none

An input is permitted exactly when its intermediate f-value lies in g's domain;membership of x in B is not the criterion.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: composition_domain_row · Uses: G001, S002

S004 · implies

Before

x=8;f(x)=22;D={118}

After

f(x)∈D=No

Conditions: none

An input is permitted exactly when its intermediate f-value lies in g's domain;membership of x in B is not the criterion.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: composition_domain_row · Uses: G001, S003

S005 · implies

Before

x=9;f(x)=-21;D={118}

After

f(x)∈D=No

Conditions: none

An input is permitted exactly when its intermediate f-value lies in g's domain;membership of x in B is not the criterion.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: composition_domain_row · Uses: G001, S004

S006 · implies

Before

{x∈A:f(x)∈D}

After

∅

Conditions: none

Retain all and only legal inputs;if A is empty or no intermediate value is compatible,the permitted domain is empty.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: restricted_composition_domain · Uses: G001, S005

Reverse checks

  • S006 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

  • S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

∅

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
