Suppose that the functions \( q \) and \( r \) are defined as follows. \[ \begin{array}{l}q(x)=3 x-2 \\ r(x)=4 x+5\end{array} \] Find the following. \[ (r \circ q)(-1)=\square \]

To find \((r \circ q)(-1)\), we need to evaluate the functions \(q\) and \(r\) in succession. 1. **First, evaluate \(q(-1)\):** \[ q(x) = 3x - 2 \\ q(-1) = 3(-1) - 2 = -3 - 2 = -5 \] 2. **Next, use the result from \(q(-1)\) as the input for \(r\):** \[ r(x) = 4x + 5 \\ r(-5) = 4(-5) + 5 = -20 + 5 = -15 \] Therefore, \((r \circ q)(-1) = -15\). \[ \rboxed{-15} \]
