Question

For the functions f(x)=−7x^2−x and g(x)=9x^2−4x, find (f−g)(x) and (f−g)(1)

Answer 1

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=-7x^2-x\\g(x)=9x^2-4x\\(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\(f-g)(x)=(-7x^2-x)-(9x^2-4x)\\(f-g)(x)=-7x^2-x-9x^2+4x\\(f-g)(x)=-16x^2+3x\\\\(f-g)(1)=-16(1)^2+3(1)\\(f-g)(1)=-16+3=-13$
