If f(x) = 7 – 4x and g(x) = 12x, what is the value of f(g(5))?

To find the value of f(g(5)), we need to calculate g(5) first and then use that result to evaluate f.

Starting with g(x):

g(x) = 12x

Substituting 5 into g:

g(5) = 12 * 5 = 60

Now that we have g(5), we can find f(g(5)) or f(60):

f(x) = 7 – 4x

Substituting 60 into f:

f(60) = 7 – 4 * 60 = 7 – 240 = -233

Therefore, the value of f(g(5)) is -233.
