Given:

The two functions are:


g(b)=5b-9


h(b)=(b-1)^2

To find:

The value of
(h\circ g)(-6).

Solution:

We have,


g(b)=5b-9


h(b)=(b-1)^2

We know that,


(h\circ g)(b)=h(g(b))


(h\circ g)(b)=h(5b-9)


(h\circ g)(b)=[(5b-9)-1]^2


(h\circ g)(b)=[5b-10]^2

Putting
b=-6, we get


(h\circ g)(-6)=[5(-6)-10]^2


(h\circ g)(-6)=[-39-10]^2


(h\circ g)(-6)=[-49]^2


(h\circ g)(-6)=2401

Therefore, the value of
(h\circ g)(-6) is 2401.
