Answer:

10 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of pieces of calzone = 24

No of pieces of calzone eaten by sophie = 1/4 of Total no. of pieces of calzone = 1/4 of 24 = (1/4)*24= 6 pieces.

No of pieces of calzone eaten by Glenn = 1/4 of Total no. of pieces of calzone = 1/4 of 24 = (1/4)*24= 6 pieces.

Total no of pieces eaten by both of them on saturday = 12.

No of pieces of calzone left = 24-12 = 12

_______________________________________________

No of pieces of calzone eaten by Glenn on next day = 1/6 of Total no. of pieces of calzone left= 1/6 of 12 = (1/6)*12= 2 pieces

No of pieces of calzone left now after Glenn ate 2 of them = 12-2 = 10.

Thus 10 pieces of original calzone are left .

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

f(x) = 4 - x²

g(x) = 2x + 5

Step 2: Find g(-2)

Substitute in x [Function g(x)]: g(-2) = 2(-2) + 5
Multiply: g(-2) = -4 + 5
Add: g(-2) = 1

Step 3: Find f(g(-2))

Substitute in x [Function f(x)]: f(g(-2)) = 4 - (1)²
Evaluate exponents: f(g(-2)) = 4 - 1
Subtract: f(g(-2)) = 3
