Solution:

The function is given below as


\begin{gathered} g(x)=(x+4)/(x-1) \\ h(x)=2x-1 \end{gathered}

To figure out


(goh)(x)

To do this , we will substitute x= 2x-1 in g(x)


\begin{gathered} g(x)=(x+4)/(x-1) \\ g(h)(x)=(2x-1+4)/(2x-1-1) \\ g(h)(x)=(2x+3)/(2x-2) \end{gathered}

Hence,

The composte function will be


(goh)(x)=(2x+3)/(2x-2)

Step 2:

To figure out the domain,

In mathematics, the domain of a function is the set of inputs accepted by the function.

Hence,

The domain of the function is


\begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&amp;\:x<1\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x>1\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&amp;\:\left(-\infty \:,\:1\right)\cup \left(1,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}
