<h3>Answer: 12</h3>

===================================

Explanation:

First lets compute the value of g(1.5)

Plug x = 1.5 into the g(x) function

g(x) = 8 - 3x

g(1.5) = 8 - 3*1.5  <<--- note how every x is replaced with 1.5

g(1.5) = 8 - 4.5

g(1.5) = 3.5

We ultimately want the value of h(g(1.5)), but that is the same as h(3.5) because we found g(1.5) = 3.5; effectively, g(1.5) and 3.5 are the same value.

Let's compute h(3.5) by plugging in x = 3.5 into the h(x) function.

h(x) = 2x + 5

h(3.5) = 2(3.5) + 5

h(3.5) = 7+5

h(3.5) = 12

h(g(1.5)) = 12 which is the final answer

----------------

An alternative track is to first figure out what h(g(x)) would be in general, by first doing this

h(x) = 2x + 5

h(g(x)) = 2*( g(x) ) + 5  <<---- every x replaced with g(x)

h(g(x)) = 2*( 8-3x ) + 5 <<---- the g(x) replaced with 8-3x

h(g(x)) = 16 - 6x + 5

h(g(x)) = -6x + 21

From here, we plug in x = 1.5

h(g(x)) = -6x + 21

h(g(1.5)) = -6*1.5 + 21

h(g(1.5)) = -9 + 21

h(g(1.5)) = 12 which is the same answer as before

<h3>Who is a Kindergartners?</h3>

These are referred to as the group of children between the ages of 4 and 6 years old who attend kindergarten as a way of preparing them for nursery school. These individuals usually have a high sense of inquisitiveness and are fast learners especially when images are used to teach them about various topics in schools or at home.

Practices for letter recognition should be done with the use of tracing the models as it serves as a very important pre-writing activity and serves as the foundation of learning which helps to ensure that adequate knowledge of certain things are achieved.
