Original question and givens

Let f:R→R be f(t)=(2)t+(7) and g:R→R be g(t)=(2)t+(0). Find (g∘f)(7) exactly.

  • G001 — Let f:R→R be f(t)=(2)t+(7) and g:R→R be g(t)=(2)t+(0). Find (g∘f)(7) exactly.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

(g∘f)(x)

After

g(f(x)):apply f first,then g

Conditions: none

The function on the right acts first;composition is not multiplication of two function values.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: composition_order · Uses: G001

S002 · calculation

Before

f(x) product := mul(2, 7)

After

f(x) product = 14

Conditions: none

Substitute the current input and multiply by the coefficient.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · calculation

Before

f(x) value := sum(14, 7)

After

f(x) value = 21

Conditions: none

Then add this function's own constant term.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002

S004 · calculation

Before

g(f(x)) product := mul(2, 21)

After

g(f(x)) product = 42

Conditions: none

Substitute the current input and multiply by the coefficient.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S003

S005 · calculation

Before

g(f(x)) value := sum(42, 0)

After

g(f(x)) value = 42

Conditions: none

Then add this function's own constant term.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S004

Reverse checks

  • S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute g(f(x)) value with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute g(f(x)) product with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute f(x) value with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute f(x) product with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

42

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
