Answer:
(f · g)(x) = 4x³ + x² - 20x - 5
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
<u>Algebra I</u>
- Combining Like Terms
- Expand by FOIL (First Outside Inside Last)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
f(x) = 4x + 1
g(x) = x² - 5
(f · g)(x) is f(x)g(x)
<u>Step 2: Find (f · g)(x)</u>
- Substitute: (f · g)(x) = (4x + 1)(x² - 5)
- Expand [FOIL]: (f · g)(x) = 4x³ - 20x + x² - 5
- Combine like terms: (f · g)(x) = 4x³ + x² - 20x - 5
Ok to find this answer you first have to subtract the 16 from the 30 to find what "CB" is, which is 14. From there subtract 14 and 16 from 49 to find that the whole answer is 35. I think that is the answer but I'm not positive.
The answer to this incorrectly worded question is b
