(f g)(x) means f(x) * g(x), so plug the value of each function in:

(x+2)(x-4)

And solve by distributing using FOIL:

Firsts: x * x = x²

Outers: x * -4 = -4x

Inners: 2 * x = 2x

Lasts: 2 * -4 = -8

Combine them all together:

x² - 4x + 2x - 8

Combine like terms (the -4x and 2x):

x² - 2x - 8

So the second to last one is correct.
