Answer:


(fog)(6)=1161

Explanation:

It is given that
f(x)=x^2+5 and
g(x)=5x+4, then
(fog)(x) can be written as:


(fog)(x)=(5x+4)^2+5

Upon solving the above equation, we get


(fog)(x)=25x^2+16+40x+5


(fog)(x)=25x^2+40x+21

Now,
(fog)(6) can be written as:


(fog)(6)=25(6)^2+40(6)+21


(fog)(6)=900+240+21


(fog)(6)=1161

Therefore, the value of
(fog)(6) is 1161.
