find the indicated function value, if it exists,
given f(x) = 2 - x and g(x) √(3-x)
(f°g)(-2) = f(sqrt(3+2)) = f(sqrt(5)) = 2-sqrt(5)

Your use of spacing between f and g definitions could mean g%28x%29=sqrt%283-x%29.

f%28g%28x%29%29=2-sqrt%283-x%29

Now let x=-2. Evaluate the function composition.




2-sqrt%285%29
