Question

Given that f(x)=2x+1 and g(x)=-5x+2 slove for f(g(x)) when x=3

Answer 1

f(g(x))=2(-5x+2)+1= -10x+5
f(g(3))= -10(3)+5= -25

So f(g(x)) when x=3 is -25

Answer 2

The answer is - 91

Explanation:

f(x)=2x+1

g(x)=-5x+2

To find f(g(3)) first find f(g(x))

To find f(g(x)) multiply f(x) by g(x)

that's

f(g(x)) = (2x + 1)( - 5x + 2)

f(g(x)) = - 10x² + 4x - 5x + 2

f(g(x)) = - 10x² - x + 2

To find f(g(x)) when x = 3 substitute 3 into

f(g(x))

That's

f(g(3)) = -10(3)² - 3 + 2

f(g(3)) = -90 - 3 + 2

We have the final answer as

f(g(3)) = - 91
