Assume f(x) = -2x+8 and g(x) = 5x. What is the value of (f o g)(3)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A.17 B. 3x + 8 C. -22 D. 29

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf (fog)(x) \implies f(g(x))\\ \textit{say if g(3) is } \square\\ f(g(x)) \implies f(\square)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am sorry there are characters i can not see.

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

you mean \(\bf \square ? \)?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

it's just a blank :), so it's meant to be so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh I see, I am just having a hard time understanding this stuff!

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

we know that f(x) = -2x+8 and g(x) = 5x so (fog)(3) => f( g( 3 ) ) so whatever g( 3 ) is "f" function will use THAT

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so, what's g(3)?
