Hey there!

To start, whenever you are performing (f+g)(x), this means that you are to add the functions f(x) and g(x) together.

In this case, f(x) is equal to 5x^3-2 and g(x) is equal to 2x+1.

Because you are adding the two expressions as according (f+g)(x), you should set up this expression:
(5x^3-2)(2x+1)

Now, combine your like terms (terms of the same variables that are all raised to the same power):
(5x^3-2)(2x+1)
=5x^3+2x-1

Therefore, (f+g)(x)=5x^3+2x-1

Hope this helps and I hope you have a marvelous day! :)

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question

The equation of parabola is $x=ay^2$ . If a is positive and $y^2$ is always greater than zero or equal to zero, then x is also greater or equal to zero. This means that parabola is determined for non-negative x and for all real y.

Tha canonical equation of parabola is $y^2=2px$ , where p>0. The branches of this parabola go up in positive y-direction. When you change x to y and y to x, then the branches of parabola go in positive x-direction, that is right.
