Math Problem Statement
f(g(x))
Solution
The expression represents the composition of two functions, and . In this case, is substituted as the input for . Here's the general idea behind the composition of functions:
- is evaluated first, giving some result.
- That result is then used as the input for the function .
The exact form of depends on the specific definitions of and . If you have the explicit formulas for and , I can help calculate or simplify .
Do you want to provide those functions or continue with more details?
Here are some related questions:

- What are the domain and range of a composite function?
Tip: When dealing with function composition, always work from the inside out—evaluate first before applying .
