Answer:
f(g(x))=25x^(2)+20x+2\\

Explanation:

(f·g)(x) also means f(g(x)).

So basically what we do is take the function g(x) and plug it into f(x) where ever there is the variable x.


f(g(x))=5(5x^(2)+4x)+2

Now distribute the 5.


f(g(x))=25x^(2)+20x+2

This is as simplified the equation gets as it is not factor-able.
