In set notation:

- Domain of
\( f \circ g \): \( \{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9\} \)

- Range of
\( f \circ g \): \( \{0, 1, 2, 3, 5\} \)

In the composition of two functions,
\( f \circ g \), we first apply
\( g \) and then
\( f \) to the result. The domain of the composition will be the set of all inputs for
\( g \) that map to outputs of
\( g \) which are in the domain of
\( f \). The range of the composition will be the set of all possible outputs from
\( f \) after
\( g \)has been applied.

To find the domain of
\( f \circ g \), we look at the domain of
\( g \) and see where those values map to in
\( f \). The domain of
\( g \) is the set of all x-values in its left oval, and the range is the set of all values it maps to in the right oval, which then must be in the domain of
\( f \).

From the figure provided:

- The domain of
\( g \) appears to be {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}.

- The range of
\( g \) is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} since these are the values
\( g \) maps to.

- The domain of
\( f \) is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

Since the range of
\( g \) matches the domain of
\( f \), the domain of
\( f \circ g \) will be the same as the domain of
\( g \) because all outputs from
\( g \) are valid inputs for
\( f \).

Therefore, the domain of
\( f \circ g \) is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}.

To find the range of
\( f \circ g \), we look at the range of
\( f \) since it is the last function applied. However, we need to consider only the values of the range of
\( g \) that are also in the domain of
\( f \).

- The range of
\( f \) appears to be {0, 1, 2, 3, 5} since these are the values
\( f \) maps to from its domain.

However, we have to map the values from the domain of
\( g \) through
\( f \) to get the range of
\( f \circ g \).

Mapping the domain of
\( g \) through
\( f \), we get the range of
\( f \circ g \) as the values that
\( f \) maps to, which appear to be {0, 1, 2, 3, 5}. Hence, the range of
\( f \circ g \) is {0, 1, 2, 3, 5}.

In set notation:

- Domain of
\( f \circ g \): \( \{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9\} \)

- Range of
\( f \circ g \): \( \{0, 1, 2, 3, 5\} \)

SOLUTION

Step 1 :

In this question, we are given that two functions G and F on defined in the figure below.

We are meant to find the domain and range of the composition of f o g.

Step 2 :

Comparing the domain of f with the range of g means that

we are comparing the numbers that are common for both,

as we can see 0 and 6 are common for both.

Step 3 :


\begin{gathered} \text{The domain of f o g is given as :}\lbrace\text{ 4, 5, 7 }\rbrace \\ \text{The range of f o g is given as : }\lbrace1\text{ }\rbrace \end{gathered}

CONCLUSION:


\begin{gathered} \text{The domain of f o g is given as :}\lbrace\text{ 4, 5, 7 }\rbrace \\ \text{The range of f o g is given as :}\lbrace1\text{ }\rbrace \end{gathered}
