23. Find the composite function (𝑔(𝑥)) given 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 + 2 and 𝑔(𝑥) = 6𝑥.

Answer: (𝑥) = 𝑥 + 2
(𝑔(𝑥)) = (6𝑥) + 2

24. Find the composite function (𝑔(𝑥)) given 𝑓(𝑥) = 2𝑥2 − 𝑥 and 𝑔(𝑥) = 3𝑥 − 1.

Answer: (𝑥) = 2𝑥2 − 𝑥


(𝑔(𝑥)) = 2(3𝑥 − 1)2 − (3𝑥 − 1)
(𝑔(𝑥)) = 2(9𝑥2 − 6𝑥 + 1) − 3𝑥 − (−1)
(𝑔(𝑥)) = 18𝑥2 − 12𝑥 + 2 − 3𝑥 + 1
(𝑔(𝑥)) = 18𝑥2 − 15𝑥 + 3

25. Find the composite function 𝑔(𝑓(𝑥)) given 𝑓(𝑥) = 4𝑥2 and 𝑔(𝑥) = 𝑥3 + 7𝑥 − 𝑥 + 1
Answer: (𝑥) = 𝑥3 + 7𝑥 − 𝑥 + 1
(𝑓(𝑥)) = (4𝑥2)3 + 7(4𝑥2) − 4𝑥2 + 1
(𝑓(𝑥)) = 64𝑥6 + 28𝑥2 − 4𝑥2 + 1
(𝑓(𝑥)) = 64𝑥6 + 24𝑥2 + 1

26. Given (𝑥) = 𝑥2 and 𝑔(𝑥) = 𝑥 − 6, what is 𝑓(𝑔(8)).

Answer: (𝑥) = 𝑥 − 6
(8) = 8 − 6
(8) = 2

(𝑥) = 𝑥2
(𝑔(8)) = (2)2
(𝑔(8)) = 4

27. Given (𝑥) = 𝑥3 − 1 and 𝑔(𝑥) = 𝑥2 + 4, what is 𝑔(𝑓(2)).

Answer: (𝑥) = 𝑥3 − 1
(2) = (2)3 − 1
(2) = 8 − 1
(2) = 7

(𝑥) = 𝑥2 + 4
(𝑓(2)) = (7)2 + 4
(𝑓(2)) = 49 + 4
(𝑓(2)) = 53
