Question

How do I do this?????

Answer 1

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

This weird notation just means we are going to put one equation inside the other, and then solve.

Makes more sense when you write it like this:

g ( f ( x ) )

To solve, we are going to take the 3, plug it into the f ( x )

g ( f ( 3 ) )

^ This makes it a lot easier to understand what we have to do.

Ok, so now we evaluate f ( x ) at 3.

4 ( 3 ) - 2

f( x ) = 10

Then we plug it into g ( x )

4 ( 10 ) - 1

= 39

Here's how it looks in total:

4 ( 4 ( 3 ) - 2 ) - 1 = 39

Slightly more complicated, but that's why i broke it down step by step.
