ANSWER


(g \circ \: h)(0) = 8

Step-by-step explanation

The given function


g(x) = 2x

h(x) = {x}^(2) + 4

We want to find the composition of the function,


(g \circ \: h)(x) = g(h(x))


(g \circ \: h)(x) = 2({x}^(2) + 4)


(g \circ \: h)(x) = 2{x}^(2) + 8

We substitute


x = 0

to obtain,


(g \circ \: h)(0) = 2({0})^(2) + 8

This will simplify to,


(g \circ \: h)(0) = 8
