The functions f and g are defined on R , the set of real numbers by f(x) = x^2 - 5x +2, and g(x) = 1 - x. Find h(x) = f(g(x)), and j(x) = g(f(x)).

Part 1: Step 1: Substitute in (1-x) for x in the equation f(x) = x^2 -5x +2 Step 2: Break the brackets Step 3: Collect like terms to simplify Part2: Step 1: Substitute in (x^2 -5x +2) for x in the equation g(x) = 1 - x Step 2: Collect like terms to simplify
