Question

Given: f(x) = x2, g(x) = x + 6, h(x) = 7
Find g{fſh(x)}}.
20
169
55

Answer 1

20 or 55

Explanation:

It depends because i am not sure what f(x) is.

Case 1: f(x)=x^2

We know h(x)=7 hence f(h(x))=7^2=49 hence g(f(h(x)))=49+6=55

Case 2: f(x)=x*2

We know h(x)=7 hence f(h(x))=2*7=14 hence g(f(h(x)))=14+6=20

Note: x^2 is x to the power of 2 while x*2 is x times 2.
