Answer:

The value of f(g(3)) is 23.

Explanation:

The given functions are


f(x)=2x+3


g(x)=x^2+1

We have to find the value of f(g(3)).

Substitute x=3 in the function g(x) to find the value of g(3).


g(3)=3^2+1=9+1=10


f(g(3))=f(10) [g(3)=10]

Substitute x=10 in the function f(x) to find the value of f(10).


f(10)=2(10)+3=20+3=23

Therefore the value of f(g(3)) is 23.
