If f(x) = 1 over 3x − 2 and g(x) = −2x − 1, find (f • g)(9) ill love whoever answers this forever

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

first multiply both function so you have 1 -2x-1 -------- x -------- = ?? 3x-2 1

OpenStudy (jonathanvaldes98):

i have no idea how todo this is there any way to break it down even more .-. sorry

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

you are multiplying 1 x (-2x-1) and on the bottom 1 x (3x-2) so what do you get ?

OpenStudy (jonathanvaldes98):

do i solve whats in the parenthesis first or distruibute

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

what is 1 x (8) = ??

OpenStudy (jonathanvaldes98):

8

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

correct, so is the same 1 x (-2x-1) = -2x-1

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

so you have -2x -1 -------- 3x -2

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

now just substitute the x for the 9, and see what you get ?

OpenStudy (jonathanvaldes98):

were i the 9

OpenStudy (jonathanvaldes98):

were is the 9**

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

like I said, you need to substitute the 9 for x on the equation

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

so you have -2(9) -1 -------- 3(9) -2

OpenStudy (jonathanvaldes98):

blonde moment is a huge understatement right now

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

OpenStudy (jonathanvaldes98):
