For all the values of x,
f(x)=x²+3 g(x)=2x-1
a) find fg(2)
b) find gf(2)

12 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

To evaluate f(g(2)), evaluate g(2) then use the value obtained to evaluate f(x)

g(2) = 2(2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3, then

f(3) = 3² + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12

(b)

To evaluate g(f(2)), evaluate f(2) the use the value obtained to evaluate g(x)

f(2) = 2² + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7, then

g(7) = 2(7) - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
