Answer:

97

Explanation:

You want the value of the composition of functions f and g for x=4.

Composition

The ring operator signifies a composition of functions. It works right to left. That is, ...


(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x))

A composition is evaluated using the Order of Operations, working from inner parentheses outward.

Application


(f\circ g)(4)=f(g(4)) = f(3-(1)/(2)4^2)=f(-5)\\\\=4(-5)^2-3=100-3=\boxed{97}
