Answer

$f(g(x)) = 3-x$ Since the function $f(g(x))$ is a polynomial function, its $Domain$ is $all$ $Real$ $numbers$.

Work Step by Step

$$f(x) = x^2 +1$$ $$g(x) = \sqrt{2-x}$$ $f(g(x)) = (\sqrt{2-x})^2 +1$ $f(g(x)) = (2-x) +1$ $f(g(x)) = 3-x$ Since the function $f(g(x))$ is a polynomial function, its $Domain$ is $all$ $Real$ $numbers$.
