The required composite value f(g(-8) is 28
A composite function is a function inside another function. Given the following functions
f(x) = x² - 3x - 12
g(x) = -x - 12
Required composite function is f(g(-8))
First we need to get f(g(x))
f(g(x)) = f(-x-12)
f(-x-12) = (-x-12)² - 3x - 12
Expand
f(-x-12) = x² +24x + 144 - 3x - 12
f(-x-12) = x² +21x + 132
f(g(x)) = x² +21x + 132
Substitute x = -8 into the result
f(g(-8)) = (-8)² +21(-8) + 132
f(g(-8)) = 64 - 168 + 132
f(g(-8)) = 28
Hence the required composite value f(g(-8) is 28
