Answer:

g(f(x)) = √((x²+5)/(x²+4))

Explanation:


g(f(x))=g((1)/(x^2+4))=\sqrt{(1)/(x^2+4)+1}=\sqrt{(1+x^2+4)/(x^2+4)}\\\\\boxed{g(f(x))=\sqrt{(x^2+5)/(x^2+4)}}

I prefer this compact form, but some may want the denominator rationalized. This means the expression becomes ...


g(f(x))=\sqrt{((x^2+5)(x^2+4))/((x^2+4)^2)}\\\\\boxed{g(f(x))=(√(x^4+9x^2+20))/(x^2+4)}
