i'll message it to you:)

OpenStudy (otonogold):

Thank you <3

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf f(x)=3x-7 \qquad {\color{red}{ g(x)}}=-2x-6\\ \quad \\ (f\ o\ g)(x)\implies f(\quad g(x)\quad )\qquad (f\ o\ g)(4)\implies f(\quad g(4)\quad )\\ \quad \\ f(\quad g(x)\quad )=3({\color{red}{ -2x-6}})-7 \\ \quad \\ (f\ o\ g)({\color{blue}{ 4}})=3({\color{red}{ -2({\color{blue}{ 4}})-6}})-7\)

Thank you @jdoe0001 :)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf g(4)=-2(4)-6\\ \quad \\ f(\quad g(4)\quad )=3({\color{red}{ -2(4)-6}})-7\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

you'd have to solve :), or just add in this case

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

keep in mind that, all you're really doing is finding g(4) firstly then plugging in that value found in f( g(x) )

OpenStudy (otonogold):

Oh okay that's understandable. so Im solving f( g(4) )=3(-2(4)-6)-7 ?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yeap

OpenStudy (otonogold):

I got -49, @jdoe0001

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yeap
