1 answer:

5 0

First: Slope of -x+2y=42y=x+4y=x/2+2So, m=1/2.
Second: Slope of the perpendicular line: mp=-2.
Third: Find the line with slope -2 and passes through the point (−2, 1)y-y1=m(x-x1)y-1=-2(x+2)y=-2x-4+1y=-2x-3

Given that f(x) = 5x - 10 and g(x) = x + 3, find f(g(-1)).

$\bf \begin{cases} f(x) = 5x-10\\ g(x) = x + 3 \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ g(-1)=(-1)+3\implies \boxed{g(-1) = 2} \\\\\\ f(~~g(-1)~~)\implies f\left( \boxed{2} \right) = 5(2)-10\implies \stackrel{f(~g(-1)~)}{f(2)}=0$
