Hey there! :)

Answer:

Choice B.

Explanation:

Since h(x) equals (g o f)(x):

f(x) is substituted for x in the equation g(x). We can go through the answer choices and choose the most suitable choice by substitution:

A. f(x) = x, g(x) = x/ x + 1

(g o f)(x) = x / x + 1. This is incorrect.

B. f(x) = x², g(x) = x / x + 1

(g o f)(x) = x² / x² + 1. This matches h(x), so this is correct.

C. f(x) = x + 1, g(x) = 1/x²

(g o f)(x) = 1/(x² + 2x + 1). This is incorrect.

D. f(x) = x + 1, g(x) = x²

(g o f)(x) = x² + 2x + 1. This is incorrect.

Therefore, B is the correct answer.
