Answer:

-22

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -x2 + 4x - 9

g(x) = x - 8,

g(f(-1))

First find f(-1)

f(-1) = - (-1)^2 + 4(-1) - 9 = -1 -4-9 = -14

The find g(-14)

g(-14) = -14-8 = -22

Andrews [41]

Answer:

y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 5 because that sign around the -5 is the absolute value sign. What the absolute value sign does is it measures the distance from 0 the number is. Since the number -5 is 5 units away from the number 0, then y=5.
