Question

If f(x) = x2 + 1 and g(x) = x – 4, which value is equivalent to mc024-1.jpg?

Answer 1

37

Explanation:

Just is.

Answer 2

the complete question in the attached figure

we have that
f(x) = x² + 1
g(x) = x – 4

step 1
find (f o g)(x)
(f o g)(x)= (x - 4)² + 1(f o g)(x) = x² - 8x + 16 + 1
(f o g)(x) = x² - 8x + 17

step 2
find (f o g)(10)
(f o g)(10) = 10² - 8*(10) + 17
(f o g)(10 = 100 - 80 + 17
(f o g)(10)= 37

the answer is 37
