Question 6 • 26/27 ALGEBRA II A

If f(x) = 8 – 10x and g(x) = 5x + 4, what is the value of (fg)(–2)?

Answer
A
–196
B
–168
C
22
D
78

Explanation

Here, (fg)(−2) means f(−2) multiplied by g(−2). We get f(−2) = 8 − 10(−2) = 28 and g(−2) = 5(−2) + 4 = −6, so their product is 28 × (−6) = −168. The correct choice is −168.
