Step 2 To decompose the composite function h(x) = 27x + 4x let the inner function be g(x) and the outer 14 - 27x3 One way to write h as a composition of two functions is to take the inner function to be g(x) = x3. Tak 27x3 = 27 27 g ( x ) 4x = 4(g(x)) 1/3 1/3 14 - 27x3 = 14 - 27 27 g (x ) Step 3 Compose these elements into h(x) to write f(g(x)) = f o g(x). h(x) = f(g(x)) = 279(x) + (g(x) ) 14 - 27g(x)
