Given
f(x)= -3x - 5
g(x)= 4x - 2
Find
(f - g)(x)
substitute the f and g values in (f - g)
(f - g)(x)= -3x - 5 - (4x - 2)
change the signs in parentheses because there is a negative sign in front of the parentheses
(f - g)(x)= -3x - 5 - 4x + 2
combine like terms
(f - g)(x)= -7x - 3
ANSWER: (f - g)(x)= -7x - 3
Hope this helps! :)
18x² - 60x + 50
= 2 (9x² - 30x + 25 ) ⇒⇒⇒ take 2 as common from all terms
note: 9x² = 3x * 3x and 25 = 5*5 and 3x * 5 *2 = 30x
so, this is a complete square
= 2(3x-5)(3x-5)
= 2(3x-5)²
