Question 756543: If f(x) = 2x + 1 and g(x) = (x 1)/2 , then f(g(x)) = So, I know what to do... Basic plug and chug. I also know that the answer is X, I just don't know how to get to the answer. I plug in g(x)... f(x) = 2(x-1/2)+1, distribute... (2x-2+1)/2, combine like terms... (2x-1)/2. Now that's where I get stuck. I don't know how to get to x, unless I did my math wrong. How do I get to x? Found 2 solutions by stanbon, MathLover1:Answer by stanbon(75887) About Me (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! If f(x) = 2x + 1 and g(x) = (x 1)/2 , then f(g(x)) = f[(x-1)/2] = 2[(x-1)/2]+1 = (x-1)+1 = x ================================ Cheers, Stan H. =============== Answer by MathLover1(20819) About Me (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! What all this says is whenever you see x in f%28x%29 then replace it with g%28x%29 f%28x%29=2x%2B1 ......if g%28x%29=%28x-1%29%2F2 then f%28g%28x%29%29=2%28%28x-1%29%2F2%29+%2B1 f%28g%28x%29%29=cross%282%29%28%28x-1%29%2Fcross%282%29%29+%2B1 f%28g%28x%29%29=%28x-1%29+%2B1 f%28g%28x%29%29=x-1+%2B1 f%28g%28x%29%29=x
