    How does this composite function simplify to 2(2^x) ?

    f(x)=2xand g(x)=2^x Find the composite function of fg(x) fg(x) =f(g(x)) =f(2^x) =2(2^x) I don’t understand how this in turn equals to 2^(x+1) [Moderator's note: Moved from a technical forum and thus no template.]

    Composite Fermion Approach to FQHE

    I am following David Tong's notes on the Quantum Hall Effect (https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.06687). One of the approaches he takes to the FQHE is the composite fermion approach (Section 3.3.2). There are two things I am struggling with. First of all he says that a vortex is something around which...

    Finding f(6) from a composite function

    It is obvious that the function f is not injective. From the given equation, we get f(f(2))=6.And since,there is an inequality given in the problem, I think we can use that to find f(6).But I have got stuck here and can't move.Do I have to find what is f(x) first?Then how?

    B Domain and the codomain of a composite function

    So, I'm a bit confused. The thing is, basically, all elementary functions are of the form ƒ:ℝ→ℝ. So the domain is ℝ and so is the codomain. However, if we have a function ƒ:ℝ→ℝ, given with f(x) = √x, it's domain is now x≥0. So, is the domain of this function ℝ or [0,+∞>? Also, let's say we have...
