a) By addition of functions, we find that h(17) = 28.
b) According to the graph, we find that f(- 1) = 1 and f(e) ≈ - 3.8.
<h3>How to analyze functions</h3>
In this question we must analyze functions based on properties for operations between functions and representations on Cartesian plane. a) The <em>first</em> part consists in evaluating each of the two functions and find the result by definition of addition between two functions:
f(17) = √(17 - 1)
f(17) = 4
g(17) = 2 · 17 - 10
g(17) = 24
By addition of functions:
h(x) = (f + g) (x) = f(x) + g(x)
h(17) = (f + g) (17) = f(17) + g(17)
h(17) = 4 + 24
h(17) = 28
By addition of functions, we find that h(17) = 28.
b) The <em>second</em> part consists in finding the values corresponding to two points lying on the curve, domain corresponds to <em>horizontal</em> axis and range corresponds to <em>vertical</em> axis:
f(- 1) = 1, f(e) ≈ - 3.8
According to the graph, we find that f(- 1) = 1 and f(e) ≈ - 3.8.
