If \(f: R \rightarrow R\) and \(g: R \rightarrow R\) are defined by \(f(x)=2 x+3\) and \(g(x)=x^2+7\), then the values of \(x\) such that \(g(x)=x^2+7\), then the values of \(x\) such that \(g(f(x))=8\) are

  1. A 1,2
  2. B \(-1,2\)
  3. C \(-1,-2\)
  4. D \(1,-2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(-1,-2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

we have, \(f(x)=2 x+3, g(x)=x^2+7\) \(g(f(x))=g(2 x+3)=(2 x+3)^2+7=8\) \(\Rightarrow \quad 4 x^2+9+12 x+7=8\) \(\Rightarrow \quad 4 x^2+12 x+8=0\) \(\Rightarrow \quad x^2+3 x+2=0\) \(\Rightarrow \quad(x+1)(x+2)=0\) \(\therefore \quad x=-1,-2\)
