For f(x) = 9x and g(x) = x + 3, find the following functions.

a. (f o g)(x);
b. (g o f )(x);
c. (f o g )(2);
d. (g o f )(2)

a)  9*x + 27

b) 9*x+3

c) 45

d) 21

Step-by-step explanation:

since (f o g)(x) = f (g(x))  , then

a) (f o g)(x) = f (x + 3) = 9*(x+3) = 9*x + 27

similarly

b) (g o f)(x) = g (f(x)) = g ( 9x) = (9*x)+3 = 9*x+3

c) for x=2

(f o g)(2) = 9*2 + 27 = 45

d) for x=2

(g o f )(2) =  9*2 +3 = 21

thus we can see that the composition of functions is not necessarily commutative  

answer: ouch. thats difficult

step-by-step explanation:

y = 0.77(x)

step-by-step explanation:

the jacket retains this value after 23% cut or retains 77% of original value. plug original 87 jacket price for x and the remaining value should be y.
