Math Problem Statement

Use the graphs to evaluate the expressions below for functions f(x) and g(x).

Solution

Let's go through the given expressions step by step by reading the values from the graphs for f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x).

1. f(g(5))f(g(5))

  • First, find g(5)g(5) from the graph of g(x)g(x). The value of g(5)g(5) is 1.
  • Now, use f(x)f(x) to find f(1)f(1). From the graph of f(x)f(x), the value of f(1)f(1) is 0.
  • Thus, f(g(5))=0f(g(5)) = 0.

2. g(f(3))g(f(3))

  • First, find f(3)f(3) from the graph of f(x)f(x). The value of f(3)f(3) is 5.
  • Now, use g(x)g(x) to find g(5)g(5). From the graph of g(x)g(x), the value of g(5)g(5) is 1.
  • Thus, g(f(3))=1g(f(3)) = 1.

3. f(f(0))f(f(0))

  • First, find f(0)f(0) from the graph of f(x)f(x). The value of f(0)f(0) is 3.
  • Now, use f(x)f(x) to find f(3)f(3). From the graph of f(x)f(x), the value of f(3)f(3) is 5.
  • Thus, f(f(0))=5f(f(0)) = 5.

4. g(g(4))g(g(4))

  • First, find g(4)g(4) from the graph of g(x)g(x). The value of g(4)g(4) is 0.
  • Now, use g(x)g(x) to find g(0)g(0). From the graph of g(x)g(x), the value of g(0)g(0) is 3.
  • Thus, g(g(4))=3g(g(4)) = 3.

Final answers:

  1. f(g(5))=0f(g(5)) = 0
  2. g(f(3))=1g(f(3)) = 1
  3. f(f(0))=5f(f(0)) = 5
  4. g(g(4))=3g(g(4)) = 3
