given,
f(x)=(1/2)x-3
g(x)=2x+6
Now,
f(4)=(1/2)×4-3
=2-3=-1
g(4)=2×4+6=14
Then,
f(g(4))=f(14)=(1/2)×14-3=7-3=4
g(f(4))=g(-1)=2×(-1)+6=-2+6=4
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate f(g(4)) substitute x = 4 into g(x) and then substitute the value obtained into f(x)
g(4) = (2 × 4) + 6 = 8 + 6 = 14, then
f(14) = (0.5 × 14) - 3 = 7 - 3 = 4
Hence f(g(4)) = 4

To evaluate g(f(4)) substitute x = 4 into f(x) and then substitute the value obtained into g(x)
f(4) = (0.5 × 4) - 3 = 2 - 3 = - 1, then
g(- 1) = (2 × - 1) + 6 = - 2 + 6 = 4
Hence g(f(4)) = 4
