Question

Let f (x) = x2 +5 and g (x)= x-3

a. find the composite function of (fog) (x)  and simplify 

b. find the value of fog (1)

Expert Solution
Step 1

This question is based on the concept of composite functions.

(fog)(x)=f(g(x))

 

Step 2

a)f(x)=(g(x)2 +5)

(fog)(x)=(x-3)2 +5

=x2 +9-6x+5

=x2 -6x+14

The composite function is x2-6x+14. ans
