Transcribed Image Text:### Understanding Function Composition
To express \( Q(x) = \cos^9 (4x - 5) \) as the composition of three functions, we need to determine the functions \( f \), \( g \), and \( h \) such that \( Q(x) = f(g(h(x))) \).
---
#### Problem Statement
Which functions \( f \), \( g \), and \( h \) below are correct?
---
#### Options
- **A.**
- \( h(x) = 4x - 5 \)
- \( g(x) = \cos (x) \)
- \( f(x) = x^9 \)
- **B.**
- \( h(x) = 4x - 5 \)
- \( g(x) = x^9 \)
- \( f(x) = \cos (x) \)
- **C.**
- \( h(x) = \cos (x) - 5 \)
- \( g(x) = x^9 \)
- \( f(x) = 4x \)
- **D.**
- \( h(x) = 4x \)
- \( g(x) = \cos (x) - 5 \)
- \( f(x) = x^9 \)
- **E.**
- \( h(x) = 4x - 5 \)
- \( g(x) = x \)
- \( f(x) = \cos (x) \)
- **F.**
- \( h(x) = \cos (x) \)
- \( g(x) = x^9 \)
- \( f(x) = 4x - 5 \)
---
#### Explanation
To find the correct option, let's break down \( Q(x) = \cos^9 (4x - 5) \) into three functions:
1. First, let’s define \( h(x) = 4x - 5 \).
2. Then, define \( g(x) = \cos (x) \).
3. Finally, define \( f(x) = x^9 \).
So, \( Q(x) = f(g(h(x))) \).
1. \( h(x) = 4x - 5 \)
2. \( g(x) = \cos (x) \)
3. \(
