Detailed Solution & Explanation

To find the composite function (gf)(x)=g(f(x))\displaystyle (g \circ f)(x) = g(f(x)), we substitute f(x)\displaystyle f(x) into g(x)\displaystyle g(x):
Given:
f(x)=x+2f(x) = x + 2
g(x)=7xg(x) = 7^x

Substitute f(x)\displaystyle f(x) in place of x\displaystyle x in g(x)\displaystyle g(x):
g(f(x))=7f(x)=7x+2g(f(x)) = 7^{f(x)} = 7^{x + 2}
Using the algebraic exponent rule am+n=aman\displaystyle a^{m+n} = a^m \cdot a^n, we can rewrite this as:
7x+2=7x72=7x49=49(7x)7^{x + 2} = 7^x \cdot 7^2 = 7^x \cdot 49 = 49(7^x)

Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
