Given the following functions f(x) and g(x), solve (f ⋅ g)(2) and select the correct answer below: f(x) = 2x^2 − 10 g(x) = x + 9

(f * g)(2) =
(2x^2 - 10)(x + 9)                                 First step is to FOIL the binomials
2x^3 + 18x^2 - 10x - 90                       Next, Plug 2 in for each 'x'
2(2)^3 + 18(2)^2 - 10(2) - 90               Simlify
2(8) + 18(4) - 20 - 90
16 + 72 - 20 - 90 = -22

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0

the value of x is equal to 0.
