Question 176403: I need help on a a problem that says If f(x)=x^2 and g(x)=x-3, find (f(open circle)g)(0).
I'm not sure how else to write the open circle thing, but could you please help me and explain this to me? Found 2 solutions by stanbon, Mathtut:Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If f(x)=x^2 and g(x)=x-3, find (f(open circle)g)(0).
(fog)(0)
= f[g(x)] = f[x-3] = (x-3)^2 = x^2-6x+9
------------------------------------------
(fog)(0) = 0^2 - 6*0 + 9 = 9

Cheers,

You can put this solution on YOUR website! you can also write this as f(g(0)). which means you
:
evaluate g(0) which is g(0)=0-3=-3....-3 now becomes the number which we are evaluating in function f(x)
f(-3)=-3^2=9
:
so the answer of
(
