To find f(g(x)), we first need to substitute g(x) into f(x). Given the functions:
- f(x) = 3x²
- g(x) = 2x²
Now, let’s substitute g(x) into f(x):
f(g(x)) = f(2x²)
Now, replace x in f(x) with 2x²:
f(g(x)) = 3(2x²)²
Next, we calculate (2x²)²:
(2x²)² = 4x⁴
Now, we substitute this back into the equation:
f(g(x)) = 3(4x⁴) = 12x⁴
Therefore, the final result is:
f(g(x)) = 12x⁴
