First you need to find g(6) which is -2 now plug in -2 into the function f. So 6(-2)+12=0

Answer: The correct option is (B) 0.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given the following two functions :


f(x)=6x+12,\\\\g(x)=x-8.

We are to find the value of f(g(6)).

To find the required value, first we need to find the value of f(g(x)).

We have


f(g(x))\\\\=f(x-8)\\\\=6(x-8)+12\\\\=6x-48+12\\\\=6x-36.

Therefore, we get


f(g(6))=6*6-36=36-36=0.

Thus, the required value of f(g(x)) is 0.

Option (B) is CORRECT.
