Answer: C) 3</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
f(x) is the outer function, so the final output -8 corresponds to f(x)
We see that f(-4) = -8 in the first column of the table. I'm starting with the output and working my way backward to get the input. So we started with -8 and worked back to -4.
Then we move to the g(x) function to follow the same pattern: start with the output and move to the input. We start at -4 in the g(x) bubble and move to 3 in the x bubble.
In short, g(3) = -4
So,
f(g(x)) = f(g(3)) = f(-4) = -8
We see that x = 3 leads to f(g(x)) = -8
Answer:
f(2) = -40
Step-by-step explanation:
Just substitute x=2 into the function:
f(x) = 2x³ - 3x² - 18x - 8
f(2) = 2(2)³ - 3(2)² - 18(2) - 8
f(2) = 2(8) - 3(4) - 36 - 8
f(2) = 16 - 12 - 44
f(2) = 4 - 44
f(2) = -40
