Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

f(x) = 5x + 7

g(x) = 3x - 1

Step 2: Find

  1. Substitute in functions:                                                                                    f(g(x)) = 5(3x - 1) + 7
  2. [Distributive Property] Distribute 5:                                                                 f(g(x)) = 15x - 5 + 7
  3. [Addition] Combine like terms:                                                                        f(g(x)) = 15x + 2
