Xy is the number

A) x + y = 7
B) 10y + x = 10x + y + 9
collecting terms of equation B
B) -9x + 9y = 9
multiplying A) by 9
A) 9x + 9y = 63 then adding it to equation B)
B) -9x + 9y = 9
18y = 72
y = 4
x = 3

The number is 34

Answer:

$\boxed{f(6) = 34}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Composition of functions occurs when we have two functions normally written similar or exactly like f(x) & g(x) - you can have any coefficients to the (x), but the most commonly seen are f(x) and g(x). They are written as either f(g(x)) or (f o g)(x). Because our composition is written as $(f \circ g)(2)$ , we are replacing the x values in the g(x) function with 2 and simplifying the expression.

$g(2) = 3(2)$

$g(2) = 6$

Now, because we are composing the functions, this value we have solved for now replaces the x-values in the f(x) function. So, f(x) becomes f(6), and we use the same manner as above to simplify.

$f(6) = (6)^2-2$
