Find g(4) first

myininaya (myininaya):

Then plug that into f

myininaya (myininaya):

\[g(8)=\frac{8+8}{4}\] what does this =?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hold on 32 I think

myininaya (myininaya):

8+8=16 What is 16/4=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I absolutely suck at these problems.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16/4 =4

myininaya (myininaya):

Now plug 4 into f(x)

myininaya (myininaya):

oops i thought we were finding (f o g)(4)

myininaya (myininaya):

above we are finding (g o f)(4) you can use this as example to do your problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh noes D:

myininaya (myininaya):

\[f(g(4))=f(4)=4^2+6\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

=15/11

myininaya (myininaya):

I'm sorry lol it is really hard for me to flip back and forth i got the function for g wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh. Now I see. It makes sense when you do it with someone but then when you do it alone you're mind screwed. ;/

hero (hero):

omg, this is like the second time I have witnessed myininaya make a mistake

myininaya (myininaya):

\[f(x)=x^2+6 , g(x)=\frac{x+8}{4}\]

myininaya (myininaya):

Are those the two functions?

hero (hero):

I thought g(x) = (x+8)/x

myininaya (myininaya):

lol I don't know I don't really want to flip back anymore

myininaya (myininaya):

\[(g o f)(4)=g(f(4))=g(4^2+6)=g(16+6)=g(32)=\frac{32+8}{32}\] using hero's function for g

hero (hero):

actually, f(x) = x^2 + 6

hero (hero):

@myininaya , I think it's time to "flip back"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let me help, so you guy don't have to "dispute" :P

myininaya (myininaya):

I think it would be easier lib libs if you put the functions here next time. I'm bad this memory thing.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's 15/11 Right?

hero (hero):

I wasn't planning on disputing with anyone.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes ma'am~

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(4) = 4^2 + 6 = 22 -> gof (4) = (22 + 8 ) / 22 = 30/ 22 = 15/11

hero (hero):

I get 15/11 too

myininaya (myininaya):

yes because 16+6 equals 22 not 32 lol

myininaya (myininaya):

that was a type-o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@myininaya You're too professional :) @Hero you're way formulated :P

hero (hero):

@Chlorophyll, what does that make you? I guess you're too Chlorophyll'd lol
