Answer:

The correct option is:

h(x)=f(g(x)), where f(x)=x2 and g(x)=3x−5

Explanation:

We have the function

[tex]h(x)=(3x-5)^2[/tex]

And we want to find the functions f and g such that:

[tex]h(x)=f(g(x))[/tex]

We can see that in h(x) we have a parenthesis squared. If we define f as:

[tex]f(x)=x^2[/tex]

Then, the function f will square whatever we put in the function.

Now if we define:

[tex]g(x)=3x-5[/tex]

Now, if we evaluate f(x) on g(x):

[tex]f(g(x))=(g(x))^2=(3x-5)^2=h(x)[/tex]

Thus, the correct answer is the first option
