Answer:

Explanation:

To find g(f(x)), first, understand that this means we are going to use the function of f(x) where the x would be in g(x).

1. First, identify the x in g(x) and replace it with the function of f(x)

g(x)=2x-3; so g(f(x))= 2(3x+1) -3

2. Simplify the equation by distributing the 2 and combining like terms.

2*3x=6x and 2*1=2, so we are left with 6x+2-3. After, just do 2-3 to end up with

g(f(x))=6x-1

Answer:

6x -- 1

Explanation:

To Solve for g(f(x)), bear in mind

f(x) = 3x + 1

g(x) = 2x -- 3

g(f(x)) = 2x -- 3. (Calm down right?)

Let x = f(x).

if you recheck g(x) = 2x -- 3 so we got the (x) from it (do you get?)

g(f(x)) = 2(3x + 1) -- 3

g(f(x)) = 6x + 2 -- 3

g(f(x)) = 6x -- 1
