WILL MEDAL AND FAN What would the expression (fog)(x) represent?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(x)=x≥100−25g g(x)=x(.20)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Those are my f(x) and g(x), and now I need help finding out what (f o g)(x) and (g o f)(x) would be

OpenStudy (er.mohd.amir):

what is f(x) and g(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(x)=x≥100−25 g(x)=x(.20)

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

The definition makes no sense. Please copy the problem carefully and show your best efforts at a solution.

OpenStudy (er.mohd.amir):

f(x) is not correct and also g(x)

The whole problem is - You have a coupon for your favorite clothing store for $25 off any purchase of more than $100. The store is also running a 20%-off sale on its entire inventory. Let x be the original price, f(x) be the price with the $25 coupon applied, and g(x) be the price with the 20% discount applied. Write an expression for f(x) and g(x). What would the expression (f o g)(x) represent, and would would (g o f)(x) represent. Attached is what i mean by (f o g) and (g o f)

OpenStudy (er.mohd.amir):

g(x)=x-1/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So my g(x)=x-1/5? what about f(x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait, my f(x) would just be f(x)=x-25, right?

OpenStudy (er.mohd.amir):

f(x)=25x-100, provided x>4

OpenStudy (er.mohd.amir):

f(g(x))=f(x-1/5)=25(x-1/5)-100 =25x-5-100=25x-105

OpenStudy (er.mohd.amir):

g(f(x)=g(25x-100)=(25x-100)-(1/5) =25x-100-(1/5)=25x-(501/5)
