Question

F(x)=x^2+6 and g(x)=2x-1 G[f(x)]= A.4x^2-4x+7 B.2x^2+11 C.2x^2+5

Answer 1

Answer:

g( f(x) ) = 2x^2 + 11 (Answer choice B)

Step-by-step explanation:

g( f(x) ) involves using the function f(x) = x^2 + 6 as the input to g(x).

Here, g(x) = 2x - 1.  Replace the x in g(x) by "f(x)" and the x in 2x - 1 by x^2 + 6.  Then we have g( f(x) ) = 2[x^2 + 6] -1.  This can be simplified, as follows:

                                     = 2x^2 + 12 - 1, or 2x^2 + 11.  This is answer choice B.
