u try i will help you !
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sqrt x sorry
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
first find g(1/2).
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
@ninab731
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[f(g(\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }))\]
\[\sqrt{\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }}\]

\[g(1/2) = \sqrt{1/2}\]
So now you can put that into
\[f(x) = 4x+5\]
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
now find f(1/sqrt 2)
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
@ninab731
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
substitute x=1/sqrt 2 in 4x+5
OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya thats what i get but how do they get it into the form of \[5+2\sqrt{2}\]
OpenStudy (vjordillo):
You have the same answer to your book. You just got the decimal equivalence of 2 sqrt of 2

\[\Large g(x)=\sqrt x\]\[\Large \color{royalblue}{g(1/2)=\sqrt {1/2}}\]
\[\Large f(\color{royalblue}{x})\quad=\quad 4(\color{royalblue}{x})+5\]\[\Large f(\color{royalblue}{g(1/2)})\quad=\quad 4(\color{royalblue}{\sqrt {1/2}})+5\]
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
tell me sqrt 2
use a calc.

do u have a calculator at first @ninab731 ?
OpenStudy (vjordillo):
And 2sqrt of 2is 2.828. Adding its value to 5, makes your answer equal to that of the answer of the book.
