Medal will be awarded Let f(x) = 4x – 32 and g(x) = 4x. Part 1 [4 points] What is (f ◦ g)(x) ? Part 2 [2 points] Use complete sentences to describe the method you used to solve this problem.
first off, when you do one of these step number one is to get rid of the little circle
\[f\circ g(x)=f(g(x))\] that is always step one
If you are trying to fine f(g(x)) Then you just plug the g equation into the x of the f equation.
|dw:1373231310181:dw| then you just solve for x
step two is to replace the general \(g(x)\) by the specific one that you have in this case step two would be \[f(4x)\] because in this example \(g(x)=4x\)
step three is replace the \(x\) in \(f(x)\) by whatever is in the parentheses in this example it is \[f(4x)=4\times 4x-32\]
and finally step 4 is to write whatever you get in standard form, here it would be \(16x-32\) which is probably what @marissalovescats meant when she said "solve for \(x\)" but it is not really solving for \(x\), it is just rewriting
Yup^^
and those are almost complete sentences
got it?
No actually they answered the question but I got lost in the middle again.
