Answer

$ f\circ g(x)=3^{x^{2}+1},\qquad(-\infty,+\infty$) $ g\circ f(x)=3^{2x}+1,\qquad(-\infty,+\infty$)

Work Step by Step

$f\circ g(x)=f(g(x))=3^{g(x)}$ $=3^{x^{2}+1},$ no restriction,defined for all reals domain=$\mathbb{R}=(-\infty,+\infty$) $g\circ f(x)=g(f(x)=[f(x)]^{2}+1=(3^{x})^{2}+1$ $=3^{2x}+1$ no restriction,defined for all reals domain=$\mathbb{R}=(-\infty,+\infty$)
