# Function Composition Problems

### Problem Statement
Find the compositions \( h \circ g \) and \( g \circ h \) for the following functions:

### Part a
1. Given:
   - \( g(x) = \sqrt[3]{x - 4} \)
   - \( h(x) = x^3 + 4 \)

2. Find:
   - \( h \circ g \)
   - \( g \circ h \)

### Part b
1. Given:
   - \( g(x) = x^2 + 1 \)
   - \( h(x) = x + 2 \)

2. Find:
   - \( h \circ g \)
   - \( g \circ h \)

In these problems, students are required to substitute the function \( g(x) \) into the function \( h(x) \) to find \( h \circ g \), and substitute \( h(x) \) into the function \( g(x) \) to find \( g \circ h \). This exercise helps in understanding the concept of function composition which is fundamental in algebra and calculus.
