Answer:

4x^2 - 4x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x - 1

g(x) = x^2 - 4

g(f(x)) = ?

[substitute the x of g(x) with f(x)]

g(x) = x^2 - 4

g(f(x)) = (2x - 1)^2 - 4

[solve]

[binomial * binomial = quadratic equation]

[use FOIL method (first, outer, inner, last)]

g(f(x)) = (2x - 1)(2x - 1) - 4

g(f(x)) = (2x*2x) + (-2x) + (-2x) + (1) - 4

[combine like terms]

g(f(x)) = 4x^2 - 2x - 2x + 1 - 4

g(f(x)) = 4x^2 - 4x - 3

[ Answer ]

\boxed{2y \ + \ 28}

[ Explanation ]

4(y + 6) - 2(y - 2)

[Expand] 4(y + 6): 4y + 24

4y + 24 - 2(y - 2)

4y + 24 - 2y + 4

[Simplify] 4y + 24 - 2y + 4: 2y + 28

= 2y + 28
