The Math Help Topic

Post by Jman »

Yep, I think we have one, but this is for those who need math questions answered, or needs homework help or something like that. I don't know where to put this topic, so I stuck it here.

My question:
How do you write a compound function?

Either f(g(x)) or fog(x). Both notations are used.

Yeah, I also learned how to multiply a very easy way a long time ago. Perhaps we use different techniques though. I use the Nappiers Bones method.

I believe it's called looking at the back of the book where all the answers are.
