Some guidelines for question askers.

Please note:
1) Ask only one question per post.
2) When asking a question talk about what you have tried for yourself. Then people will take you more seriously and will be more able and willing to help.
3) If you get an answer mehr ..

What is the domain of (fg)(x)?

Your question doesn't make sense so I assume this notation is new to you.

You probably mean the domain f(g(x)) and you got it from a different question.

The domain is all the values that x is allowed to be.

(The range would be all the values that y is allowed to be.)

I hope this helps. You can ask questions like this on the back of other posts if you want to.

This is the graph of y=sin ^-1x
It looks like it finishes early, I don't know why, but the end points are (-1,-pi/2) and (1, pi/2)

I am going to add more but there are mistakes in my last post so I will fix them first and I will tell you when they are fixed
It was actually the graphing on desmos that showed me my error, which is exactly what Demos is great for.

this is a graph of both on the same grid, I am short of time so I must get this post finished.

Given that p(x)= sin^-1 x and q(x)= x+7, what is the domain of p(q(x))?

The instruction Special has given you is good but what if you didn't have access to the Demos calculator?

By the way, the Demos calculator is fabulous and I use it all the time. But mostly it should be used to check your answer or give you guidance, not to answer the question for you.

With your question you must first look at whether q(x) has put any restrictions on the domain. And no, it has not, q(x) is defined for all real x.

Now look at p(q(x))

p(q(x)) = sin-1(x+7) also written as p(q(x)) = asin(x+7)

Now, I think, AshB, that you are supposed to know what y=sin ^-1x looks like and therefore that it is restricted to -1 < x < 1

So, looking at your problem

-1 <= x+7 <= 1
-1 -7 <= x <= 1 - 7
So the domain of p(q(x)) will be -8 <= x <= -6 ( the errors that I speak about in the next post have been fixed)

I might have a play with demos and see if I can get you a graph or 2

tan (x) sin (x) + sec (x) cos2 (x)
I am assuming you mean

tan (x) sin (x) + sec (x) cos ²(x)

= sinx/cosx * sinx + 1/cosx * cos ²(x)

= sin ²x/cosx + cosx

= (sin ²x + cos ²x) / cosx

= 1 / cosx

= sec x

how i can use cos^-1 ?

It is the inverse of cos or arccos

You use it to find an angle.
