It’s just apart of a homework practice. When you get the answer, just tell me if the answer is A,B,C,or D.

The function is given as,


\begin{gathered} f(x)=x^2\text{ - 1} \\ g(x)\text{ = }\sqrt[]{x-3} \end{gathered}
g(f(x))\text{ is calculated as,}
\begin{gathered} g(f(x))\text{ = }\sqrt[]{(x^2-1)-3} \\ g(f(x))\text{ = }\sqrt[]{x^2-1-3} \\ g(f(x))\text{ = }\sqrt[]{x^2-4} \end{gathered}

Thus the required answer is ,


g(f(x))\text{ = }\sqrt[]{x^2-4}

The domain of the given function is,


x\text{ }\leq\text{ }-2\text{ and x }\ge\text{ 2}

Thus the correct answer is option is (A).
