Answer
f ∘ g(x) = 6x - 5
Solution
To find f ∘ g(x), substitute g(x) into f(x):
f(g(x)) = 3 * (2x - 3) + 4
= 6x - 9 + 4
= 6x - 5
Thus, f ∘ g(x) = 6x - 5.

To find \( f \circ g(x) \), which means \( f(g(x)) \), we start by substituting \( g(x) \) into \( f(x) \). Given: - \( g(x) = 2x - 3 \) - \( f(x) = 3x + 4 \) Now substitute \( g(x) \) into \( f(x) \): \[ f(g(x)) = f(2x - 3) = 3(2x - 3) + 4 \] Now, simplify it: \[ = 6x - 9 + 4 \] \[ = 6x - 5 \] Thus, the composition \( f \circ g(x) \) is: \[ f \circ g(x) = 6x - 5 \]
