Question 1151129: If f(x) = 2x2 and g(x)= x2 + 2x, which expression represents f(g(x))?

Use "^" to denote exponentiation: for example, "2x^2" instead of just "2x2"....

To find the expression for f(g(x)), replace "x" in the definition of f(x) with g(x) -- i.e., replace "x" with "x^2+2x":

Then presumably that answer is supposed to be simplified; I leave that to you.
