Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = -2x + 3

g(x) = 2x + 3

f(3) is x = 3 for function f(x)

g(7) is x = 7 for function g(x)

Step 2: Solve

1. Substitute in x [Functions]:                                                                               f(3) = -2(3) + 3, g(7) = 2(7) + 3
2. Substitute in functions:                                                                                     f(3) + g(7) = -2(3) + 3 + 2(7) + 3
3. Multiply:                                                                                                             f(3) + g(7) = -6 + 3 + 14 + 3
4. Add:                                                                                                                   f(3) + g(7) = -3 + 14 + 3
5. Add:                                                                                                                   f(3) + g(7) = 14
