Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics practice

MCQ practice - Understand the concept of functions, including their domain and range, and use function notation such as f(x) = 3x - 5, g(x) = 5/2, and h(x) = 2x + 3. Learn to determine inverse functions and create composite functions, for example, if f(x) = 3x + 5 and g(x) = x + 2, find fg(x) and gf(x) = g(f(x)). Provide answers as fractions in simplest form. Note that finding the domains and ranges of composite functions is not required. This topic may also involve mapping diagrams. - Functions
