Precal Help please

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

@kirbykirby I do not know how to multiply these 2 together for f*g and g*f

OpenStudy (loser66):

It's not multiplication. It is "of"

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

Isnt it the same thing though?

OpenStudy (loser66):

\[f(\color{red}{x})= 6-\color{red}{x}^2\] so, if you find \(fog\), that means \[f(\color{red}{g(x)})= 6-\color{red}{(g(x)})^2\]

OpenStudy (loser66):

Where you see x, replace by g(x)

OpenStudy (loser66):

You misunderstood the concept. It is NOT multiplication (Again)

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

alright sqrt 6= 6- sqrt 6 ^2?

OpenStudy (loser66):

replace the whole g(x) in your g(x) = \(\sqrt 6 -x\) so that \[f(\color{red}{g(x)})= 6-\color{red}{(\sqrt6 -x)})^2\]

OpenStudy (loser66):

do some algebra to get the answer.

OpenStudy (loser66):

Like "father of father is grandfather, it's not \(father ^2\)
