i came up with (d) as my answer, because when x=3 fx=5 so i go to the table and look at 5, and see gx=2 so i then go back to the table for 2 and find g(x)=5
d=5 Answer by adamchapman(301) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! (f o g)^ -1 (3)
is the same as (f(g(x)) reversed. ( the ^-1 represents the inverse (reversed) funcion, not 1/(f(g(x))) ).
We can now say: (from the table)
So .
I hope this helps,
