@satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find \(f(10)\) then find \(g(10)\) then multiply those two answers

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

f=(x^2-7)(10)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh no lets go slow

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

please :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(f\)is a function it is not a multiplication so for example if \(f(x)=x^2-7\) hten \[f(2)=2^2-7\\ f(3)=3^2-7\\ f(\pi)=\pi^2-7\\ f(\spadesuit)=\spadesuit^2-7\]

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

oh! so therefore

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

f(10)=10^2-7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

and then that would mean that G(10)=13-10?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

so then (fg)(10)=10^2-7+13-10?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no evaluate each function first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[f(10)=10^2-7=?\]

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

ok so 100-7=93 f(10)=93 13-10=3 so G=3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes NOW multiply to find \(fg(10)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use a calculator

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

so that would be ((93)(3)) which is 279 so (fg)(10)=279

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (zackattack350):

got it! thanks! Next one coming up in a different question!
