For this case we have the following functions:

[tex]f (x) = \frac {1} {x + 5}\\g (x) = x-2[/tex]

We must find f (g (x)). So:

[tex]f (g (x)) = \frac {1} {(x-2) +5} = \frac {1} {x-2 + 5} = \frac {1} {x + 3}[/tex]

Finally we have to:

[tex]f (g (x)) = \frac {1} {x + 3}[/tex]

For the function to be defined the denominator must be different from 0. That is x different from -3.
