Question

Find (f + g)(x) and (f g)(x) for f(x) = 6x2 + 5 and g(x) = 7 – 5x.

Answer 1

Answer:

  B.  (f + g)(x) = 6x² – 5x + 12

       (f- g)(x) = 6x² + 5x – 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) (f +g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = (6x² + 5) + (7 -5x) = 6x² -5x +12

__

2) (f-g)(x) = f(x) -g(x) = (6x² + 5) - (7 -5x)

  = 6x² +5 -7 +5x . . . the minus sign outside multiplies all the terms inside

  = 6x² +5x -2
