If g(x)=3x2+2x−3,f(0)=−3g(x)=3 x^{2}+2 x-3, f(0)=-3 and 4g(f(x))=3x2−32x+724 g(f(x))=3 x^{2}-32 x+72, then f(g(2))f(g(2)) is equal to:

Options

  1. A−72-\frac{7}{2}
  2. B−256-\frac{25}{6}
  3. C72\frac{7}{2}
  4. D256\frac{25}{6}

Correct answer

C. 72\frac{7}{2}

Step-by-step solution

Let f(x)=ax+bf(x) = ax + b. Then 4g(f(x))=12(ax+b)2+8(ax+b)−124g(f(x)) = 12(ax+b)^2 + 8(ax+b) - 12.
Comparing with 3x2−32x+723x^2 - 32x + 72:
x2x^2: 12a2=3⇒a=±1212a^2 = 3 \Rightarrow a = \pm\frac{1}{2}
Constant: 12b2+8b−12=72⇒3b2+2b−21=0⇒b=7312b^2 + 8b - 12 = 72 \Rightarrow 3b^2 + 2b - 21 = 0 \Rightarrow b = \frac{7}{3} or b=−3b = -3. Since f(0)=−3f(0) = -3, b=−3b = -3.
xx: 8a(3(−3)+1)=−32⇒−8a=−4⇒a=128a(3(-3)+1) = -32 \Rightarrow -8a = -4 \Rightarrow a = \frac{1}{2}.
So f(x)=x2−3f(x) = \frac{x}{2} - 3.
g(2)=3(4)+4−3=13g(2) = 3(4) + 4 - 3 = 13.
f(g(2))=f(13)=132−3=72f(g(2)) = f(13) = \frac{13}{2} - 3 = \frac{7}{2}.
