f(x) = 7x g(x) = 3x + 10. 1) Find f(g(x)). 2) Find (g ο f)(x).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay this isn't hard

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so plug g int the x of f

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so f(3x+10)=7(3x+10)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup now distribute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you distribute on the left side of the equation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the right side is 21x+70?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

21x+70

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what right side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7(3x+10)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what left side i mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the left side of the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(3x+10)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have to distribute that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is only 21x=70

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now divide by 21

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3.3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the three is repeating

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup is that an asnwer choice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

theres no answer choices :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o kk lets solve the second part of the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay! So I do the same thing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

opposite put the 7 into the g

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

put the f inside the x's of the g's

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(7x)(7x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no 3(7x)=10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you explian?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o sry u just multiply wasnt looking at the question correctly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so (7x)(3x+10)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have to foil it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

21x^2+70

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*70x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh awesome, thank you!
