Combination of functions and coordinate geometry points

135 Views Asked by At

Consider the functions $f(x) = \sqrt x$ and $g(x) = 7x + b$ in the standard $(x,y)$ coordinate plane, $y =f(g(x))$ passes through $(4,6)$. What is the value of b?

This question is forced me. Thanks for your helping!

$$y=f(g(x))=\sqrt{g(x)}=\sqrt{7x+b}$$

Now plug in $x=4,y=6$ $$6=\sqrt{7 \times4 + b}$$
