Given the function


y=(2)/(x^2)+9

since y=(f(g(x))

We need to find f(x) and g(x)

f(x) is


f(x)=x+9

then

g(x)


g(x)=(2)/(x^2)

then


y=f(g(x))=(2)/(x^2)+9

We have


y=(2)/(x^2)+9

replace then


(2)/(x^2)=X

now we have


y=X+9

now we are give that

y=(f(g(x))

this means that for a function f(x) the value of x is replace with the function g(x)

then the only option to complete this statement is that

f(x)=X+9

but remember X=
