Question 1203886: Suppose F(x) = f(g(x)) where
f(-2)=8
f'(-2)=4
f'(5)=3
g(5)=-2
g'(5)=6
Find F'(5)

Answer: 24
Work Shown
F(x) = f(g(x))
F ' (x) = f ' (g(x)) * g ' (x) ...... chain rule
F ' (5) = f ' (g(5)) * g ' (5)
F ' (5) = f ' (-2) * 6
F ' (5) = 4 * 6
F ' (5) = 24
The relevant given info was
f'(-2)=4
g(5)=-2
g'(5)=6
While the following info wasn't needed
f(-2)=8
f'(5)=3
This likely was designed by your teacher to throw off the student (as a trick answer of sorts)
