Aubrey is selling tickets to a carnival. The function f(x) = 0.5x represents the amount of money in dollars Aubrey earns per ticket, where x is the number of tickets she sells. The function g(x) = 4x represents the number of tickets Aubrey sells per hour, where x is the number of hours she works.

Find f(g(x)), and explain its meaning.


f(g(x)) = 2x, which represents the money Aubrey made in dollars per hour

f(g(x)) = 2x, which represents the number of tickets Aubrey sold per hour

f(g(x)) = 8x, which represents the money Aubrey made in dollars per hour

f(g(x)) = 8x, which represents the number of tickets Aubrey sold per hour

Answer:

Option A.

Explanation:

The function f(x) = 0.5x represents the amount of money Aurbrey earns per ticket.

x represents the number of tickets she sold.

Function g(x) = 4x represents the number of tickets Aubrey sells per hour and x represents the number of hours she works.

f[g(x)] = (0.5×4x)

= (2x)

= (2x)

Function f[g(x)] represents the money Aurbrey made in dollars per hour.

Option A. will be the answer.
