Answer:

(f∘g)(x) = 7/(x+7)

domain: (-∞, -7) ∪ (-7, 0) ∪ (0, ∞)

Explanation:

(f∘g)(x) = f(g(x)) = (7/x)/((7/x) +1) . . . . substitute g(x) for x in the definition of f(x)

... = 7/(x(7/x) +1)

... (f∘g)(x) = 7/(7 +x)

The domain may not include any values of x that make any of the function values become undefined. That is, denominator values of zero are not allowed.

For x=0, g(x) is undefined.

For x=-7, (f∘g)(x) is undefined.

Thus the domain is all real numbers except -7 or 0.
