The answer is 7, your welcome if this helped!
You could actually find the compositions and thus have something to compare. You haven't shared the list of possible answer choices.
(f+g)(x) = 5x - 3 + x + 4 = 6x + 1
(f-g)(x) = 5x - 3 - x - 4 = 4x - 7
(f*g)(x) = (5x-3)((x+4) = 5x^2 + 20x - 3x - 12 = 5x^2 + 17x - 12
There are also the quotient (f/g)(x) and the compositions f(g(x)) and g(f(x)).
WRite them out.
Then you could arbitrarily select x values, such as 2, 10, etc., subst. them into each composition and determine which output is greatest.
<span>Part A: Area = length * width = (6x^2 + 3x - 2) * (x^3 - 2x + 5)
Multiply it out and simplify.
part B: </span><span>Take the first term 6x^2 and multiply each of the term x^3, -2x & 5. Then take 3x and multiply each of the term x^3, -2x & 5. Do the same with -2.
Then add like terms and simplify.</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can add the two equations to eliminate 
and solve for 
.
Now, we can find for by using substitution:
