Answer:
(f • g) (x) = 2x² + 9x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x² + x - 3
g(x) = x + 2
To find (f • g) (x) substitute g(x) into every x in f (x)
That's
(f • g) (x) = 2(x + 2)² + x + 2 - 3
Expand and simplify
(f • g) (x) = 2( x² + 4x + 4) + x - 1
= 2x² + 8x + 8 + x - 1
Group like terms
= 2x² + 8x + x + 8 - 1
We have the final answer as
(f • g) (x) = 2x² + 9x + 7
Hope this helps you
