ANSWER

• (g o f)(x) = ,16x² + 24x + 9

,

• B., the domain of g o f is all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation

The composition is,


(g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))

This means that, to find the composition, we have to replace x with f(x) in the function g(x),


g(f(x))=(f(x))^2

Now, replace f(x) with its expression,


g(f(x))=(4x+3)^2

We can expand this binomial squared to write it in standard form. The composition is,


(g\circ f)(x)=16x^2+24x+9

As we can see, this is a polynomial function. Therefore, the domain is all real numbers.
