The key idea here is that one function is following the other. In order for the
function to be defined the output of the first function to take effect must be among
the possible inputs of the second function to take effect. This can be done by just
looking at the codomain and domains, but what you actually need to know about is
the range, not just the codomain, of the first function. So if the codomain of the first
function isn’t contained in the domain of the second function, then you
need to do the extra work to see if you can determine the range of the first
function and see if that is included in the domain of the second function.

What are the domain and codomain of ?
Domain: and Codomain: .Domain:

Remember to check the domain and codomain from
the composition to make sure it makes sense.
