Answer:
f(a) = 5 + a² and g(a) = √(a - 5) - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
(g°f)(a) means that g(a) has to be evaluated at f(a), that is, replace a in g(a) with f(a).
Taking:
f(a) = 5 + a² and g(a) = √(a - 5) - 2
we get:
(g°f)(a) = √(5 + a² - 5) - 2 = √(a²) - 2 = |a| - 2
Where the theorem that states:
- for any real number a, √(a²) = |a|
was used.
