left bracket negative 5 comma infinity right parenthesis
C
open paren infinity comma negative infinity close paren
D
left bracket negative 1 comma infinity right parenthesis

Explanation

The composition is f(g(x)) = (2x − 3)² − 1. This is a polynomial expression, so it is defined for every real value of x; there are no denominators or even-root restrictions. Therefore, the domain is (−∞, ∞), choice C.
