There are many ways to do this.

One such way is

[tex]f(x) = \frac{8}{x}+2[/tex]

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

So therefore,

[tex]f(x) = \frac{8}{x}+2[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = \frac{8}{g(x)}+2[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = \frac{8}{x^2}+2[/tex]

---------------------------------------

Another way to do it is this

[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{x}+2[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{8}x^2[/tex]

So,

[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{x}+2[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = \frac{1}{g(x)}+2[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = \frac{1}{1/8x^2}+2[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = \frac{8}{x^2}+2[/tex]

getting the same result
