X + y = -10
-3x -y = 2
We'll try with x as a small number and y with a big number to try and balance it out.
-3 - 7 = 10
9 - 7 = 2
X = -3
Y = -7
Hope this helps! :)

Kipish [7]

Answer:

f(g(x)) = x^4 + 12x^3 + 14x^2 -132x + 123

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we simply will place g(x) into f(x)

So every x in f(x) is replaced by g(x)

Thus, we have;

(x^2 + 6x + 11)^2 + 2

= (x^2+6x-11)(x^2 + 6x -11) + 2

= x^4 + 6x^3 -11x^2 + 6x^3 + 36x^2 - 66x -11x^2 -66x + 121 + 2

= x^4 + 12x^3 + 14x^2 -132x + 123
