Answer:
When x = 1, (f◦g)(x) is -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Composite function:
The composite function of f and g is given by:
[tex](f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))[/tex]
In this question:
[tex]f(x) = x - 3, g(x) = x^2[/tex]
Composite function:
The composite function is:
[tex]f(g(x)) = f(x^2) = x^2 - 3[/tex]
At x = 1
[tex](f \circ g)(1) = 1^2 - 3 = 1 - 3 = -2[/tex]
So
When x = 1, (f◦g)(x) is -2.
