Part 1.

The compositon fog is given by


(f\circ g)(x)=-2(4x-7)^2-7

which gives


\begin{gathered} (f\circ g)(x)=-2(16x^2-56x+49)^{}-7 \\ (f\circ g)(x)=-32x^2+112x-98^{}-7 \\ (f\circ g)(x)=-32x^2+112x-105 \end{gathered}

Then, the answer is:


(f\circ g)(x)=-32x^2+112x-105

Part 2.

The composition gof is given by


(g\circ f)(x)=4(-2x^2-7)-7

Then, the answer is:


(g\circ f)(x)=-8x^2-35

Part 3.

In this case, we need to substitute x=1 into the answer of Part 1, that is,


\begin{gathered} (f\circ g)(1)=-32(1)^2+112(1)-105 \\ (f\circ g)(1)=-32^{}+112-105 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is:


(f\circ g)(1)=-25
