Find (fog)(2) and (f+g)(2) when f(x) =1/x and g(x) =4x+9
Dahasolnce [82]

( f o g)(2) = \frac{1}{17}

(f + g)(2) = \frac{35}{2}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that:

f(x) = \frac{1}{x}\\\\g(x) = 4x + 9

To find: (fog)(2) and (f + g)(2)

By composite function,

( f o g)(x) = f (g(x))

Substitute g(x) = 4x + 9 in above formula,

( f o g)(x) = f(4x + 9)

To find (fog)(2) substitute x = 2 in above formula

( f o g)(2) = f(4(2) + 9)

( f o g)(2) = f(8 + 9) = f(17)

We know that f(x) = \frac{1}{x}

( f o g)(2) = f(17) = \frac{1}{17}

( f o g)(2) = \frac{1}{17}

<em><u>To find (f + g)(2)</u></em>

We know that,

(f + g)(x) = f (x) + g(x)

Therefore,

(f + g)(2) = f(2) + g(2)

Substitute x = 2 in f(x) and g(x)

(f + g)(2) = \frac{1}{2} + (4(2) + 9)\\\\(f + g)(2) = \frac{1}{2} + 17 = \frac{1+34}{2} = \frac{35}{2}

(f + g)(2) = \frac{35}{2}

Factor this expression completely and then place the factors in the proper location on the grid. 36y2 - 1
Tema [17]
I'm assuming that y2 means y^2 or y squared. In that case, your factors will be (6y+1) and (6y-1).
