Answer

$\color{blue}{\bf{(a) -30x-33}\text{; } (-\infty,\infty) } $ $\color{blue}{\bf{(b) -30x+52 }\text{; } (-\infty,\infty) } $

Work Step by Step

We are given the two functions $\bf{f}$ and $\bf{g}$ $\bf{f(x) = -6x+9 }$ and $\bf{g(x) = 5x+7 }$ $\bf(a)$We are asked to find $\bf{ ( f \text{ }\omicron\text{ g} )( x ) }$ and its domain. ${ ( f \text{ }\omicron\text{ g} )( x ) }= -6(5x+7)+9 $ $ -6(5x+7)+9 $ $-30x -42+9$ $\color{blue}{\bf{ -30x-33}}$ The domain is any real number or: $\color{blue}{\bf{ (-\infty,\infty) }}$ $\bf(b)$We are asked to find $\bf{ ( g \text{ }\omicron\text{ f} )( x ) }$ and its domain. ${ ( g \text{ }\omicron\text{ f} )( x ) }= 5( -6x+9 )+7 $ $5( -6x+9 )+7 $ $-30x+45+7$ $\color{blue}{\bf{ -30x+52 }}$ The domain is any real number or: $\color{blue}{\bf{ (-\infty,\infty) }}$
