Solution Steps

To find g(h(t)) g(h(t)) , we need to substitute h(t) h(t) into the function g(x) g(x) . This involves two steps:

  1. Calculate h(t) h(t) using the given function h(x)=x34x2+4 h(x) = x^3 - 4x^2 + 4 .
  2. Substitute the result of h(t) h(t) into g(x)=x8x g(x) = \frac{x}{8-x} .
Step 1: Calculate h(t) h(t)

First, we need to calculate h(t) h(t) using the function h(x)=x34x2+4 h(x) = x^3 - 4x^2 + 4 . For t=2 t = 2 :

h(2)=23422+4=816+4=4 h(2) = 2^3 - 4 \cdot 2^2 + 4 = 8 - 16 + 4 = -4

Step 2: Substitute h(t) h(t) into g(x) g(x)

Next, we substitute h(t)=4 h(t) = -4 into the function g(x)=x8x g(x) = \frac{x}{8-x} :

g(4)=48(4)=48+4=412=130.3333 g(-4) = \frac{-4}{8 - (-4)} = \frac{-4}{8 + 4} = \frac{-4}{12} = -\frac{1}{3} \approx -0.3333

Final Answer

0.3333 \boxed{-0.3333}
