For the given functions f and g, find the indicated composition.
f(x) = -6x +5, g(x) = 2x + 8; (g of)(x)
A. - 12x - 2
В.- 12x + 53
C. 12x + 18
D.- 12x + 18


Sagot :

Answer:

D. -12x + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -6x +5; g(x) = 2x + 8

[g o f](x) = g(f(x))

this means that in g(x), everywhere there's an x, f(x) replaces it. [g o f](x) is represented at the following: (f(x) is in bold)

g(f(x)) = 2(-6x +5) + 8                  distribute the 2 to (-6x + 5)

g(f(x)) = -12x + 10 + 8                   combine like terms

g(f(x)) = -12x + 18
