Arithmetic and Functions

Answer:
Option D is correct.
[tex]f(x) = 4x^2[/tex]
[tex]g(x) = x+1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
As per the statement:
If [tex]h(x) = (fog)(x)[/tex] and [tex]h(x) = 4(x+1)^2[/tex]
Find: f(x) and g(x).
[tex]h(x) = (f(g(x))[/tex]
[tex]4(x+1)^2=f(g(x))[/tex]
From the options
let [tex]g(x) = x+1[/tex] and [tex]f(x) = 4x^2[/tex]
then;
[tex]f(g(x)) = f(x+1)[/tex]
Replace x with x+1 in f(x) we have;
[tex]f(g(x)) = f(x+1) = 4(x+1)^2[/tex]
Therefore, one possibility for f(x) and g(x) is:
[tex]f(x) = 4x^2[/tex]
[tex]g(x) = x+1[/tex]
Answer:
Choice D is correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
From question statement, we observe that
h(x) = (f*g)(x) and h(x) = 4(x+1)²
We have to find possibilities for f(x) and g(x).
Comparing above equation,we get
4(x+1)² = f(g(x))
From possibilities,
let g(x) = x+1 and f(x) = 4x²
h(x) = f(g(x)) = f(x+1)
h(x) = 4(x+1)² which is the answer.
