Given:
h(x) = x - 7
g(x) = x^2
Determine (g o h)(5)
Solution:
The given condition is a composition of a function where as we substitute the value of h to the x of g, and the x of h will also be substituted by the value 5.
(g o h)(5) = (5 - 7)^2
(g o h)(5) = (5 - 7)^2
(g o h)(5) = (-2)^2
(g o h)(5) = 4
Final answer:
(g o h)(5) = 4
