Here the first thing you do is replace your x's with 5's in your h function like this:

OpenStudy (imstuck):

\[h(5)=5-7\]That equals...?

OpenStudy (imstuck):

lilia222, are you there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5-7 = -2

OpenStudy (neer2890):

(goh)(x)= g(h(x))=g(x-7) now just replace x in g(x) to (x-7) g(x-7)=(x-7)^2 and finally put the value of x which is 5

OpenStudy (imstuck):

Yes! Now apply that -2 into the g function wherever you see an x, like this:\[g(-2)=(-2)^{2}\]

OpenStudy (imstuck):

What do you get?

OpenStudy (imstuck):

neer2890 did it a bit differently, but either way, you come up with the same answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

g(-2)= 4

OpenStudy (imstuck):

Yep!!! See! Not bad! Your answer is the first choice.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:O Eh.. it's okay. . Thank you both :)

OpenStudy (neer2890):

you're welcome..:)
