Distinguishing Composition from Multiplication in Shipping Logistics
In supply chain logistics, analysts combine mathematical functions to model operational costs. Suppose a coordinator uses a function to calculate the shipping cost based on package weight , and another function to calculate the total package weight based on the number of items ordered .
Explain the fundamental difference between creating a composite function, denoted as , and multiplying the two functions, denoted as . In your explanation, specify how the output of one function is used in relation to the input of the other.
