You can put this solution on YOUR website!
g[f(x)] means that you need to find g(x) while replacing the \"x\" with f(x).
\n" ); document.write( "*
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, if f(x) = x + 2 and g(x) = \"x%5E2\" - 9, then g[f(x)] would be inserting the f(x) expression into g(x) for x => g[f(x)] = \"%28x+%2B+2%29%5E2+-+9\"
\n" ); document.write( "*
\n" ); document.write( "FOIL: g[f(x)] = \"x%5E2+%2B+4x+%2B+4+-+9\"
\n" ); document.write( "*
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify: g[f(x)] = \"x%5E2+%2B+4x+-+5\"
\n" ); document.write( "*
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, your final answer is g[f(x)] = \"x%5E2+%2B+4x+-+5\". If your teacher wants you to factor, it is g[f(x)] = (x + 5)(x - 1).
