If f(x)=8x and g(x)=2x+1, what is (f×g)(x)
Sav [38]

Answer:

(f * g)(x) has a final product of 16x² + 8x.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you see (f * g)(x), this means that we are going to be multiply f(x) and g(x) together.

<em>f(x)=8x</em>

<em>g(x)=2x+1</em>

Now, we multiply these terms together.

(8x)(2x + 1)

Use the foil method to multiply.

16x² + 8x

So, the product of these terms is 16x² + 8x.
