Question

If s(x) = 2 – x² and t(x) = 3x, which value is equivalent to (sof)(-7)?

Answer 1

Answer:

- 439

Step-by-step explanation:

evaluate f(- 7) and substitute the value obtained into s(x)

f(- 7) = 3(- 7) = - 21 , then

s(- 21) = 2 - (- 21)² = 2 - 441 = - 439

Answer 2

Answer:

A. (s*t)(-7)=-439

Step-by-step explanation:

(s*t)(-7) is the same as s(t(-7)). First find t(-7)

t(-7)=3(-7)=-21

t(-7)=-21

Plug -21 into s(t(-7)) for t(-7).

Find s(-21).

s(-21)=2-(-21)^2=-441+2=-439

Hope this helps!

If not, I am sorry.
