Composing functions means that the input of the outer functions is the output of the inner function.
In fact, you can rewrite the circle notation as
So, we can substitute g(x) with its expression:
And since f(x)=x+5, we simply have to add 5 to its input:
Similarly, we have, substituting f with its expression,
And since g(x)=4x+2, we have to multiply the input by 4 and add 2:

Answer: $70 per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that x is the number of years that has passed and y is how much the stamp is worth.
So we know that in zero years the stamp was worth $420 because that is the time Sheri gave her brother Sam the stamp. That could bring up the coordinates (0,420) .
Now we know that in 8 years it was worth $980 and that could be the coordinates (8,980)
To find the rate of change we need to find the different between the y value and divide it by the difference in the x values.
420 - 980 = -560
0-8 = -8
-560/-8 = 70
The rate of change is 70 which means that it grew by $70 every year.
