Understand Function Composition: Understand the composition of functions. The composition of functions (f∘g)(c) means that we first apply g to c, and then apply f to the result of g(c). So, (f∘g)(c)=f(g(c)).
Evaluate g(−11): Evaluate g(−11). We need to find the value of g(c) when c=−11. So, we calculate g(−11)=14−(−11)=14+11=25.
Simplify g(−11): Simplify g(−11). The square root of 25 is 5, so g(−11)=5.
Evaluate f(g(−11)): Evaluate f(g(−11)). Now we need to apply f to the result of g(−11), which is 5. So, we calculate f(5)=3×5−8.
Simplify f(5): Simplify f(5).Multiplying 3 by 5 gives us 15, and subtracting 8 from 15 gives us 7. So, f(5)=15−8=7.
