It should be 9. I hope this helps. If it's not 9 then can u please give me a list of your answers to choose from.

Answer: C) 3</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
f(x) is the outer function, so the final output -8 corresponds to f(x)
We see that f(-4) = -8 in the first column of the table. I'm starting with the output and working my way backward to get the input. So we started with -8 and worked back to -4.
Then we move to the g(x) function to follow the same pattern: start with the output and move to the input. We start at -4 in the g(x) bubble and move to 3 in the x bubble.
In short, g(3) = -4
So,
f(g(x)) = f(g(3)) = f(-4) = -8
We see that x = 3 leads to f(g(x)) = -8
Answer: D. y = -4x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the y-intercept is when x is zero and the x intercept is when y is 0.
and to write in the equation in slope intercept form , you will need the slope and the intercept.
We will use the y and x intercepts to find the slope, by find the difference in their y coordinates and dividing it by the difference in their x coordinates.
y intercept: ( 0,4)
x intercept: (1,0)
y coordinates difference: 4 - 0 = 4
x coordinates difference: 0 - 1 = - 1
Slope: 4/-1 = -4
Since the slope is -4 and the the y intercept is 4 , the equation will be
y = -4x + 4
