This video tutorial by Mr. Banker explores the concept of function composition, a mathematical operation that combines two functions. The tutorial provides examples of composing functions, such as f(x) = e^x and g(x) = √x, and discusses the non-commutative nature of composition. It also covers finding the domain of composed functions and demonstrates how to decompose a complex function into simpler components. The video aims to enhance understanding of function operations and their properties.

What is the definition of function composition?

• Dividing one function by another

• Adding two functions together

• Multiplying two functions

• Plugging one function into another

What does it mean if function composition is not commutative?

• f(g(x)) = g(f(x))

• f(g(x)) ≠ g(f(x))

• f(x) + g(x) = g(x) + f(x)

• f(x) * g(x) = g(x) * f(x)
