### Lesson 6.3: Composition of Functions

#### Find the composition of functions, if it exists.

Given:
- Function \( f \): 
  \[
  f = \{(-4, 1), (-2, 4), (0, 5), (2, 6), (4, 8)\}
  \]
- Function \( g \):
  \[
  g = \{(-1, -3), (0, 2), (1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 7)\}
  \]
- Function \( h \):
  \[
  h = \{(-3, -5), (-1, -1), (1, 1), (3, 5)\}
  \]

Exercises:
1. \( 107. \ (f \circ g)(x) \)
2. \( 108. \ (g \circ h)(x) \)
3. \( 109. \ (f \circ h)(x) \)

#### Explanation:

**Composition of Functions:**

- The composition of two functions \( f \) and \( g \), denoted \( (f \circ g)(x) \), is defined as \( f(g(x)) \). This means you first apply \( g \) to \( x \), then apply \( f \) to the result of \( g(x) \).

**Detailed Steps to Solve Compositions:**

1. **Composition \( (f \circ g)(x) \)**:
   - Identify the values of \( g(x) \) for each element in the domain of \( g \).
   - Use the output from \( g(x) \) as the input for \( f \) to find \( f(g(x)) \).

2. **Composition \( (g \circ h)(x) \)**:
   - Identify the values of \( h(x) \) for each element in the domain of \( h \).
   - Use the output from \( h(x) \) as the input for \( g \) to find \( g(h(x)) \).

3. **Composition \( (f \circ h)(x) \)**:
   - Identify the values of \( h(x) \) for each element in the domain of \( h \).
   - Use the output from \( h(x) \) as the input for \( f \) to find \(
