Answer

$a.\qquad 2\sqrt{2}$ $b.\qquad 2\sqrt{2}$ $c.\qquad 1$ $d.\qquad 0$

Work Step by Step

$a.$ $(f\circ g)(4)=f[g(4)]$ $g(4)=2(4)=8$ $f[g(4)]=f(8)=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}$ $b.$ $(g\circ f)(2)=g[f(2)] $ $f(2)=\sqrt{2}$ $g[f(2)] =g(\sqrt{2})=2\sqrt{2}$ $c.$ $(f\circ f)(1) =f[f(1)]$ $f(1)=\sqrt{1}=1$ $f[f(1)]=f(1)=1$ $d.$ $(g\circ g)(0)=g[g(0)]$ $g(0) =2(0) =0$ $g[g(0)]=g(0)=0$
