Answer:
f(g(5)) = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
- f(x) = x - 2
- g(x) = 3x - 2
The composite function f(g(5)) is found by plugging g(5) for x into f(x).
Let's find g(5) first.
- g(5) = 3(5) - 2
- g(5) = 15 - 2
- g(5) = 13
Next, plug this value for x into f(x).
- f(13) = (13) - 2
- f(13) = 11
∴ <u>f(g(5)) = 11</u>.
although you come up with 50 you have to pay attention to the significant figures and realize that the seconds only have 1 figure so the answer then becomes 5.
The answer is "Math".....but technically the official name for it is Mathematics.
