f(x)=-3(x-2)^2-1 and g(x)=2x-3/x+5 A. f(g(2)) B. G(f(2))

OpenStudy (zale101):

\[f(\frac{ 2x-3 }{ x+5 })\] it says f(g(2)) this means for the equation of g, the x values for it is 2 plug in 2 before you compose with the function of f.

OpenStudy (zale101):

after your done substituting that, you'll have f(and some number)

OpenStudy (zale101):

did i make it clear?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the thing that is throwing me of is the f(g(2)) thing

OpenStudy (zale101):

yeah, f(g(2)) is f of g of 2 g of 2 means that you plug in 2 in the function of g \[f(\frac{ 2(2)-3 }{ 2+5 })\]

OpenStudy (zale101):

we are not composing f to g yet, we are composing g and 2 right now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so do the second question or part of the question(b) then go back to A

OpenStudy (zale101):

we are still solving for A, don't worry about the other problems, we are not there yet

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay
