Calculate $f (g (x))$ and $g (f (x))$ for each pair of functions.

15.

$f (x) = 2 x + 5$

$g (x) = \frac{x - 5}{2}$

16.

$f (x) = {(x + 2)}^{3}$

$g (x) = \sqrt[3]{x} - 2$

17.

$f (x) = \frac{3}{4} x + 6$

$g (x) = \frac{4 (x - 6)}{3}$

18.

$f (x) = \frac{- 3}{x} + 2$

$g (x) = \frac{- 3}{x - 2}$
