Answer:

second choice

Explanation:


(f \circ g)(x) =


= f(g(x))


= f(-7x + 7)


= √(-7x + 7 + 3)


= √(-7x + 10)

Let x = 5:


(f \circ g)(5) = √(-7(5) + 10)


(f \circ g)(5) = √(-35 + 10)


(f \circ g)(5) = √(-25)

Since using x = 5 gives the square root of a negative number, 5 is not in the domain of the composition of the functions.

Answer: second choice
