find f(-3) first

OpenStudy (freckles):

f(x)=2x so f(-3)=2(-3)=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-6?

OpenStudy (freckles):

ok so we are asked to find |dw:1421794748870:dw|

OpenStudy (freckles):

we just found the inside part

OpenStudy (freckles):

now we have to find g(-6) and we are done

OpenStudy (freckles):

g(x)=x^2+4 so g(-6)=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know

OpenStudy (freckles):

do you know how to replace the x's in g(x)=x^2+4 with 6's ?

OpenStudy (freckles):

-6's*

OpenStudy (freckles):

because we are needing to find g(-6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-32?

OpenStudy (freckles):

g(x)=x^2+4 g(-6)=(-6)^2+4 g(-6)=36+4=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

40

OpenStudy (freckles):

yes g(f(-3))=g(-6)=40

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[g(f(x))=g(2x)=(2x)^2+4 =2^2 x^2+4 =4x^2+4 \\ g(f(-3))=4(-3)^2+4=4(9)+4=36+4=40\]
