Do you know what f(g(x)) means?

Answer 2

well not rearly
and thank you for the warm welcome

Answer 3

so its pretty close to the last problem instead of plugging something into the x in g(x) you are now taking the whole g(x) equation and plugging it into the x in f(x) do you understand?

Answer 4

No problem! f(g(x)) simply means that you take the function, g(x), and put it in for x in f(x). f(g(x)) = 9(-x+3) - 2

Answer 5

yeah im trying it out right now

Answer 6

is it 8x=1

Answer 7

How did you get to that?

Answer 8

did you remember to do the distributive property on 9(-x+3)?

Answer 9

ohh never mind i got -9+25 thank you

Answer 10

this online class is so annoying thans for the help guys

Answer 11

Yep, -9x + 25 is correct :)

Answer 12

No problemo! If you have any questions about the site, feel free to let me know.
