From the information given,

f(x) = 4x + 7

g(x) = 3x - 5

The first step is to find F • g(x)

To do this, we would substitute x = 3x - 5 into f(x) = 4x + 7. It becomes

F • g(x) = 4(3x - 5) + 7

We would apply the distributive property of multiplication by mutiplying each term inside the parentheses by the term outside. It becomes

F • g(x) = 4 * 3x + 4 *- 5 + 7

F • g(x) = 12x - 20 + 7

F • g(x) = 12x - 13

We would find F • g(-4) by substituting x = - 4 into F • g(x) = 12x - 13. It becomes

F • g(- 4) = 12(- 4) - 13 = - 48 - 13

F • g(- 4) = - 61
