Composition of Functions Worksheet
Types of composition of functions worksheets you can make
- Evaluating compositions: find values like f(g(2)) or (f ∘ g)(2) from two function rules
- Finding the composite function: write f(g(x)) or g(f(x)) as one function in standard form
- Tables of values: read f(g(3)) from a table of x, f(x) and g(x) values
- Graphs: read compositions like g(f(−1)) from the graphs of f and g
- Function machines: follow a number through two or three machines and fill in the missing numbers
- Working backward: use a function machine to find the input that gives a certain output
- Composing a function with itself: f(f(x)) and g(g(4))
- Three functions: f(g(h(x))) and (f ∘ g ∘ h)(2)
- Decomposing functions: given h(x) = (3x − 1)², find f and g so that h(x) = f(g(x))
Make each worksheet your own:
- four difficulty levels, from two linear functions up to quadratics and fourth-degree answers
- write problems as f(g(x)), as (f ∘ g)(x), or mix both
- choose how many problems to include
- every worksheet comes with an answer key that shows the steps
