Let f(x)=2x+3 and g(x)=x^2-1. Compute .
Answer
120
The correct answer is 120 — Substitute into g: g(11) = 11^2 - 1 = 121 - 1 = 120.
Step-by-step solution
- Evaluate f(4) = 2*4+3 = 11.
- Substitute into g: g(11) = 11^2 - 1 = 121 - 1 = 120.
Common mistake: Forgetting to evaluate f before g
Concept tested: Composition of functions
