Two functions f and g are defined by (f : x to 3x – 1)…

Two functions f and g are defined by (f : x to 3x – 1) and (g : x to 2x^{3}), evaluate (fg(-2)).

  • A.
    -49
  • B.
    -47
  • C.
    -10
  • D.
    -9
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

(g : x to 2x^{3})

(g(-2) = 2(-2^{3}) = 2(-8) = -16)

(f : x to 3x – 1)

(f(-16) = 3(-16) -1 = -48 – 1 = – 49)
