It is important because if you are adding and subtracfing and the decimals are off when your done with the equation you might end up with two decimals or numbers in the wrong place
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equations f(x) = 2x - 3 and g(x) = 6 + 8/x.
We want to find f(g(4))
Essentially, what we are doing, is plugging in 4 into x for g(x) and the outcome of that is what we plug into x for f(x)
So first lets plug in 4 into x for g(x)
g(x) = 6 + 8/x.
We want to find g(4)
g(4) = 6 + 8/4
First divide 8 by 4
g(4) = 6 + 2
Then add 6 and 2
g(4) = 8
Now that we have found g(4) we want to plug the value of g(4), so 8 into f(x)
f(x) = 2x - 3
we want to find f(8)
f(8) = 2(8) - 3
* multiply 2 and 8 *
f(8) = 16 - 3
* subtract 3 from 16 *
f(8) = 13
and we are done!
So we can conclude that f(g(4)) = 13
The answer is 29, I just didn’t on my head right now.
