Function Composition:
\( g(x) = f(x + 3) \)

Given:


\[f(x) = -x + 6\]

To find
\( g(x) \), we substitute
\( x \) with
\( x + 3 \) in
\( f(x) \):


\[g(x) = f(x + 3) = -(x + 3) + 6\]

Simplifying the equation:


$\begin{align*}g(x) &= -x - 3 + 6 \\g(x) &= \boxed{3 - x}\end{align*}$

Thus, the equation for the function
\( g(x) \) is
\( g(x) = 3 - x \).
