This is a composite function problem where you've been given functions f(x) and g(x).
(f o g)(x) can also be written as f(g(x)) where you replace x in f(x) with the function g(x).
Since you're given f(x) = 3x +2, you replace that x with g(x) = 2x2 + 2x
resulting in (f o g)(x) = f(g(x)) = 3(2x2 + 2x) + 2
Note how g(x) is now in the function f(x) which multiplies x by 3 and adds 2.
Simplify by multiplying g(x) by 3 and adding 2, so (f o g)(x) = 6x2 + 6x + 2
