### Instruction: Let $f(x)=x^2-7x+18$ and let $g(f(x))=2x+3$. What is the sum of all possible values of $g(8)$?### Response: I notice that $g(8)$ depends on what values of $x$ make $f(x)=8$.
So I want to find the solutions of the equation $f(x)=8$.
That means I need to solve $x^2-7x+18=8$.
I can rewrite this as $x^2-7x+10=0$.
I can factor this as $(x-5)(x-2)=0$.
So the solutions are $x=5$ and $x=2$.
Now I can plug these values of $x$ into $g(f(x))$ and get $g(8)$.
When $x=5$, I have $g(f(5))=g(8)=2(5)+3=13$.
When $x=2$, I have $g(f(2))=g(8)=2(2)+3=7$.
So the possible values of $g(8)$ are $13$ and $7$.
The sum of these values is $13+7=20$.
