Given the graphs of the functions f and g complete the following:
a) Find (f − g)(2).
b) Find (fg)(3).
c) Find (g/f)(1)
d) Find (f ∘g)(−2)

### Problem 4: Function Analysis Based on Graphs

Given the graphs of the functions \( f \) and \( g \), complete the following:

#### Graph Explanation:
The given figure shows the graphs of two functions, \( f \) and \( g \), overlaid on a coordinate grid. The \(x\)- and \(y\)-axes are labeled, with the \(x\)-axis marked at integer intervals. The functions are distinguished by color: 

- The function \( f \) is represented by a red piecewise linear graph.
- The function \( g \) is represented by a blue sinusoidal curve.

### Tasks:
a) **Find \( (f - g)(2) \):**
   Determine the values of \( f(2) \) and \( g(2) \) from their respective graphs, and then find their difference:
   \[
   (f - g)(2) = f(2) - g(2)
   \]

b) **Find \( (fg)(3) \):**
   Determine the values of \( f(3) \) and \( g(3) \) from their respective graphs, and then find their product:
   \[
   (fg)(3) = f(3) \cdot g(3)
   \]

c) **Find \( \left(\frac{g}{f}\right)(1) \):**
   Determine the values of \( g(1) \) and \( f(1) \) from their respective graphs, and then find their quotient:
   \[
   \left(\frac{g}{f}\right)(1) = \frac{g(1)}{f(1)}
   \]

d) **Find \( (f \circ g)(-2) \):**
   Determine the value of \( g(-2) \) from its graph, and then find \( f \) evaluated at this value:
   \[
   (f \circ g)(-2) = f(g(-2))
   \]
