Let f(x)=ax+bf(x)=ax+b and g(x)=cx+dg(x)=cx+d, where a≠0a\neq0 and c≠0c\neq0. Assume a=1a=1 and b=2b=2. If (f∘g)(x)=(g∘f)(x)(f\circ g)(x)=(g\circ f)(x) for all xx, what can you say about cc and dd? (a) cc and dd are both arbitrary. (b) c=1c=1, dd arbitrary. (c) cc arbitrary, d=1d=1. (d) c=1c=1, d=1d=1.
