Answer:

$(f-g)(x)= x^2-4x-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the two functions:

$f(x)=x^2-3x-10\text{ and } g(x)=x-5$

And we want to find (f-g)(x).

(f-g)(x) is equivalent to f(x)-g(x).

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned} (f-g)(x)&=f(x)-g(x)\\ &=(x^2-3x-10)-(x-5)\end{aligned}$

Simplify:

$\begin{aligned} &=x^2-3x-10-x+5 \\ &=(x^2)+(-3x-x)+(-10+5) \\ &=x^2-4x-5\end{aligned}$

Therefore:

$(f-g)(x)= x^2-4x-5$

4x^2 + 36 / 4x × 1 / 5x

stich3 [128]

Given with a polynomial 4X² + 36/4X *1/5X, we can combine terms with the same power. First, let us perform multiplication of the 2nd and 3rd terms such as the given become 4X² + 36/20X². Then, we can reduce 36 and 20 by 4 and the result is 4X² + 9/5X². We can now proceed combining the terms since they have same power and result will be same as below:
(20X^4 + 9)/5X²
