Question

Transcribed Image Text:The image presents a mathematical exercise involving the composition of functions using a table. The task is to find the values of the compositions \((f \circ g)(10)\), \((g \circ f)(-10)\), \((f \circ f)(6)\), and \((g \circ g)(-6)\).
### Table Data:
The table contains the following values:
| \( x \) | \( -10 \) | \( -6 \) | \( -1 \) | \( 0 \) | \( 6 \) | \( 8 \) | \( 9 \) | \( 10 \) |
|----------|---------|--------|-------|------|------|------|------|------|
| \( f(x) \) | -10 | -10 | -6 | -1 | 6 | 8 | 8 | 0 |
| \( g(x) \) | 6 | -10 | 8 | 0 | -6 | 10 | -1 | 9 |
### Calculations:
1. **\((f \circ g)(10)\):**
- First, find \(g(10)\), which is 9.
- Then, find \(f(9)\), which is 8.
- Therefore, \((f \circ g)(10) = 8\).
2. **\((g \circ f)(-10)\):**
- First, find \(f(-10)\), which is -10.
- Then, find \(g(-10)\), which is 6.
- Therefore, \((g \circ f)(-10) = 6\).
3. **\((f \circ f)(6)\):**
- First, find \(f(6)\), which is 6.
- Then, find \(f(6)\) again, which remains 6.
- Therefore, \((f \circ f)(6) = 6\).
4. **\((g \circ g)(-6)\):**
- First, find \(g(-6)\), which is -10.
- Then, find \(g(-10)\), which is 6.
- Therefore, \((g \circ g)(-6) = 6\
