Consider the functions f(x) = 3x2 and g(x) = -2x - 5. What is the value of f[g(-4)]?
Solution:
It is given that,
Function f(x) = 3x2
g(x) = -2x - 5
We have to find the value of f[g(-4)]
First let us find g(-4)
Substituting value of x as -4 in the function g(x).
g(-4) = -2 (-4) - 5
g(-4) = 8 - 5
g(-4) = 3
We know that
f[g(-4)] = 3 (3)2
f[g(-4)] = 3(9)
f[g(-4)] = 27
Therefore, the value of f[g(-4)] is 27.
Consider the functions f(x) = 3x2 and g(x) = -2x - 5. What is the value of f[g(-4)]?
Summary:
Consider the functions f(x) = 3x2 and g(x) = -2x - 5. The value of f[g(-4)] is 27.
