Here's the solution ~

The given expressions are :


\qquad \sf \: f(x) = 4x - 7


\qquad \sf \: g(x) = x +5

1. Now, let's solve for ~ f (g( x )) = ?


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: f(x) = 4x - 7


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: f(g(x) )= 4(x + 5)- 7


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: f(g(x) )= 4x + 20- 7


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: f(g(x) )= 4x + 13

2. solve for g(f( x )) = ?


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: g(x) = x +5


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: g(f(x)) = 4x - 7+5


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: g(f(x)) = 4x - 2
