21 picks
altogether (2x+5x)=21
7x=21
x=3
2*3=6 orange picks

or
x=orange, y = greens
x+y=21
x/y=2/5,---->   y=5x/2
x+5x/2=21
2x/2+5x/2=21
7x/2=21
7x=42,
x=6  orange picks

Evaluate: f(x) = f(g(3)), where<br>f(x)= 3x-2 and g(x)= x^2-4
dimulka [17.4K]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:  13

Discussion:

Evaluate f(g(3)).

g(3) = 3^2 -4 = 5 so

f(g(3)) = f(5) = 3*5-2 = 15 -2 = 13


Thank you,

MrB
