Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

When functions are "nested" like this (nested is not a math word; the mathy word is composed or composition) you need to start all the way on the inside.

f(g(-3))

means find g(-3) first, then put that answer into f.

g(x) = x - 7

g(-3) = -3 - 7

g(-3) = -10

We found g(-3) is -10, so now put -10 into f.

f(x) = 2x + 5

f(-10) = 2(-10) + 5

= -20 + 5

= -15
