Concept:

For any two functions f and g, f o g is defined as f[g(x)].

Calculation:

Given that,

f(x) = 4x + 3   

Using the above concept

⇒ fof(x) = 4(4x + 3) + 3

⇒ fof(x) = 16x + 15 

Again using the same concept

⇒ fofof(x) = 16(4x + 3) + 15

fofof(x) = 64x + 63

Put x = -1 in the above function

⇒ fofof(-1) = 64(-1) + 63 = -1

∴  f o f o f(-1) equal to -1.
