Math Problem Statement

Given h, of, x, equals, 4, x, plus, 3h(x)=4x+3, find h, of, 4h(4).

Solution

We are given the function h(x)=4x+3h(x) = 4x + 3, and we are asked to find h(4)h(4) and then h(h(4))h(h(4)).

Step 1: Calculate h(4)h(4)

We use the function h(x)=4x+3h(x) = 4x + 3 to find h(4)h(4).

h(4)=4(4)+3=16+3=19h(4) = 4(4) + 3 = 16 + 3 = 19

Step 2: Calculate h(h(4))h(h(4))

Now, we know that h(4)=19h(4) = 19. We will substitute x=19x = 19 into the function to calculate h(19)h(19).

h(19)=4(19)+3=76+3=79h(19) = 4(19) + 3 = 76 + 3 = 79

Final Answer

Thus, h(h(4))=79h(h(4)) = 79.
