The solution I get is not listed? (-1)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

how did u get -1 ?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

g(x) = 3, so g(anything) = 3. Yeah, how did you get -1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I see how you got -1. You substituted 3 into the x. That isn't exactly how the problem should be solved. You can try g of f

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

ahh you did f(g(x)) instead of g(f(x))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

g(3) = 3. What you need to do is substitute f(x) multiplied with it. Does that make sense to you?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

I dislike it when people ask for help and don't respond. I'm out. Good luck.

OpenStudy (lena772):

sorry, I have an ie browser which takes forever to refresh... and yes Kirby and ganeshie are right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would I be wrong in saying that the problem should follow as 3(f(x) You would multiply 3 into the f(x) equation to get your solution.

OpenStudy (primeralph):

@KirbyLegs What are you doing?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

As I said, g(anything) = 3, so no matter what f(x) is, g(f(x)) = 3.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

i like the way prime kept it :- g(x) = 3 so, g(anything) = 3 g(jessica alba) = 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah so because there is no variable for f(x) to go into from g(x) The answer is simply the constant of g(x) which is 3

OpenStudy (primeralph):

Yeah, works for Jessica Alba too.
