4. For each pair of functions f(x) and g(x), write the formula for the composite
g(f(x)).
a. f(x) = 4x – 7, g(x) = x2
b. f(x) = x3, g(x) = 2x + 6

c. f(x) = x, g(x) = 1 + x
d. f(x) = 3x, g(x) = 5x – 1
e. f(x) = 4x, g(x) = x + x2
5. For each pair of functions f(x) and g(x), write formulas for both composites,
g(f(x)) and f(g(x)).
a. f(x) = 2x – 1, g(x) = 3x
g(f(x)) = f(g(x)) =

c. f(x) = x – 5, g(x) =
x
g(f(x)) = f(g(x)) =
