We have the next given equations:


f(x)=x^3+6

and


g(x)=x^2

We have to find f(g(x)), it means the function f(x) in terms of g(x).

Now, we replace g(x) when we have an x on the f(x) function.

Therefore:


f(g(x))=(g(x))^3+6
f(g(x))=(x^2)^3+6

Use the logarithm property:


(x^n)^m=x^(n\cdot m)

Finally, we got:


f(g(x))=x^6+6
