Question 2 • EAP-Algebra Functions and Data Analysis A CR

Given f (x) = 3x – 5 and g(x) = 2x + 1, find g(f(x)).

Answer
A
6x2 – 7x – 5
B
6x – 10
C
6x – 2
D
6x – 9

Explanation

To find g(f(x)), substitute f(x) = 3x − 5 into g(x) = 2x + 1. This gives g(f(x)) = 2(3x − 5) + 1 = 6x − 10 + 1 = 6x − 9. Therefore, the correct choice is D, 6x − 9.
