Question

Given the following functions f(x) and g(x), solve f[g(6)] and select the correct answer below:

f(x) = 6x + 12

g(x) = x − 8

−96
0
24
48

Answer 2

Find g(6) first using function g(x)

Answer 3

g(x) = x - 8
g(6) = 6 - 8

What is 6 - 8?

Answer 4

@help_people Are you there?

Answer 5

solve for g(6) first
g(x)=x-8
g(6)=6-8
=-2
f(x)=6x+12
f(gx)= 6(-2)+12
=-12+12
=0

Answer 6

Once you find the value of g(6), use that value in function f(x).

Answer 7

-2 srry my mom called me

Answer 9

Great. You are correct.
g(6) = -2

Now we take -2 and use it in function f
f(x) = 6x + 12
f(-2) = 6(-2) + 12
Now evaluate the line above.

Answer 10

ok

Answer 11

f(-2)=-12+12
f(-2)=0
is that the answer?
