Question 3102: Composition Value from Finite Function Tables

Original question and givens

The explicit total functions have A={-11, -10, -9}, B={-3, 0, 4}, C={-3, 0, 6}, f=[(-11, 0), (-10, 4), (-9, -3)], and g=[(-3, 0), (0, -3), (4, 6)]. Find (g∘f)(-10).

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

(g∘f)(x)

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

f:A→B;g:D→C;D={-3, 0, 4}

both tables are total on their declared domains

x=-11;f(x)=0;D={-3, 0, 4}

f(x)∈D=Yes

x=-10;f(x)=4;D={-3, 0, 4}

f(x)∈D=Yes

x=-9;f(x)=-3;D={-3, 0, 4}

f(x)∈D=Yes

x=-10∈A;f(-10)=4∈D

g(4)=6∈C
