Can you show the graph or the problem?,
Given f(x) = x^2 + 1 and g(x) = x-2
a. Find (f-g)(-2)
[f-g](x) = f(x) - g(x) = x^2-x+3
[f-g](-2) = (-2)^2-(-2)+3 = 9
----------------------------
b. Find f[g(5)]
f[g(5)] = f[5-2] = f[3] = 9+1 = 10
===================
problem a.
-----
(f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)
-----
(f-g)(-2) = f(-2) - g(-2)
-----
f(x) = x^2 + 1
f(-2) = (-2)^2 + 1
f(-2) = 4+1
f(-2) = 5
-----
g(x) = x-2
g(-2) = -2-2
g(-2) = -4
-----
f-g(-2) = f(-2) - g(-2) = 5 - (-4) = 5 + 4 = 9
-----
answer for a is:
f-g(-2) = 9
-----
problem b.
-----
g(x) = x-2
g(5) = 5-2
g(5) = 3
-----
f(x) = x^2 + 1
f(g(5)) = (g(5))^2 + 1
since g(5) = 3, equation becomes:
f(g(5)) = 3^2 + 1
f(g(5)) = 9 + 1 = 10
-----
answer for b is:
f(g(5)) = 10
-----
in general, you substitute whatever value is replacing x in the equation to get your answers.
looking at problem b in this way, we would get a general solution as follows:
f(x) = x^2 + 1
g(x) = x-2
substitute g(x) for x:
f(g(x)) = (g(x))^2 + 1
substitute the equation for g(x) on the right hand side.
f(g(x)) = (x-2)^2 + 1
remove parentheses:
f(g(x)) = x^2 - 4*x + 4 + 1
simplify:
f(g(x)) = x^2 - 4*x + 5
-----
substituting 5 for x:
f(g(5)) = (5^2 - 4*5 + 5
simplifying:
f(g(5)) = 25 - 20 + 5
f(g(5)) = 10
-----
answer is the same as above where we first solved for g(5) which became 3, and then substituted that value in f(g(x)) which made it f(3)).

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The relative change from last year to this year is 3.7%.
<h3>What are Percentages?</h3>
A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.
To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.
28.6% of city employees ride the bus to work, therefore, the final value is 28.6. While Last year, 29.7% of city employees rode the bus to work, therefore, the initial value is 29.7.
Since relative change means change with respect to some value. Thus, the relative value with respect to last year is,
Relative value = (29.7-28.6)/29.7 = 0.037 = 3.7%
Hence, the relative change from last year to this year is 3.7%.
