    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.
