Question Details

If f:R→R f(x)=cos⁡x and g(x)=7x3+6, then fοg(x) is

Options

A

cos⁡(7x³+6)

B

cos⁡x

C

cos⁡(x³)

D

cos(x³+6/7)

Correct Answer :

cos⁡(7x³+6)

Solution :

The correct option is cos(7x³+6).

To find the composite function (fg)(x), we use the definition of function composition, which states:
(fg)(x)=f(g(x))

We are given the following two functions:
1. f(x)=cos(x)
2. g(x)=7x3+6

To evaluate f(g(x)), we substitute the entire expression for g(x) in place of x inside the function f(x):
f(g(x))=f(7x3+6)

Applying the definition of f(x)=cos(x):
f(7x3+6)=cos(7x3+6)

Therefore, the composite function is:
(fg)(x)=cos(7x3+6)
