For this case, the first thing we are going to do is define the following variables:
 x: Sister points.
 y: George's points.
 We write the following mathematical equation:
 y = 2 * (x-4)
 His sister has 16 points:
 y = 2 * (16-4)
 y = 2 * (12)
 y = 24

 Answer:

 How many points does George have?
 
 George has 24 points.

 What operations are needed to solve this word, and in what order should they be used?

 subtraction and multiplication, in that order

Given the functions f and g, explain why you cannot find f⋅g.
Delvig [45]

We can't write the product because there is no common input in the tables of g(x) and f(x).

<h3>Why you cannot find the product between the two functions?</h3>

If two functions f(x) and g(x) are known, then the product between the functions is straightforward.

g(x)*f(x)

Now, if we only have some coordinate pairs belonging to the function, we only can write the product if we have two coordinate pairs with the same input.

For example, if we know that (a, b) belongs to f(x) and (a, c) belongs to g(x), then we can get the product evaluated in a as:

(g*f)(a) = f(a)*g(a) = b*c

Particularly, in this case, we can see that there is no common input in the two tables, then we can't write the product of the two functions.
