Rolle's theorem holds for a monic quadratic polynomial $f(x)$ on the interval $[\alpha, \alpha + 3]$ where $f(\alpha) = 0$. Similarly, $g(x) = f(x) + 2$ also follows Rolle's theorem on the interval $[\beta, 3]$ where $g(3) = 0$, such that the value of $c$ (where $f'(c) = g'(c) = 0$) is the same for both $f(x)$ and $g(x)$. Then the value of $(f \circ g)(\alpha)$ is...
