replace the 'x' in the formula for g(x) by f(x):-

g(f(x)) = (x-7)^3

Answer:

D.
(x-7)^3

Explanation:

Given functions are,


f(x) = x-7-----(1)


g(x)=x^3-----(2)

Now,


g(f(x))=g(x-7) ( From equation (1) ),


=(x-7)^3 ( From equation (2) ),


\implies g(f(x)) = (x-7)^3

Hence, Option D is correct.
