Problem

For $f(x)=x^{2}+6$ and $g(x)=\sqrt{x-3}$, find the following composite functions and state the domain of each. (a) $f \circ g$ (b) $g \circ f$ (c) $f \circ f$ (d) $g \circ g$ (a) $(f \circ g)(x)=\square($ Simplify your answer. $)$

Solution

Step 1 :Define the functions \(f(x) = x^{2} + 6\) and \(g(x) = \sqrt{x - 3}\).

Step 2 :Find the composite function \(f \circ g\). This is done by substituting \(g(x)\) into \(f(x)\).

Step 3 :Substitute \(g(x) = \sqrt{x - 3}\) into \(f(x) = x^{2} + 6\).

Step 4 :Simplify the expression to get the composite function \(f \circ g\).

Step 5 :The composite function \(f \circ g(x)\) simplifies to \(x + 3\). Therefore, \(f \circ g(x) = x + 3\) for \(x \geq 3\).

Step 6 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{f \circ g(x) = x + 3}\) for \(x \geq 3\).
