HELP MEEEE How do you add and subtract functions?

Mathematics

Answer:

To add or subtract functions, just add or subtract the values at each point where it makes sense. If the functions are given by formulas, you can just add or subtract the formulas (it doesn't matter whether you plug in values before or after).

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's an example of adding two functions

f(x) = 5x^2+7x+10\\\\g(x) = 3x^2-2x+4\\\\f(x)+g(x) = (5x^2+7x+10)+(3x^2-2x+4)\\\\f(x)+g(x) = (5x^2+3x^2)+(7x-2x)+(10+4)\\\\f(x)+g(x) = 8x^2+5x+14\\\\

We basically add the expressions like normal. There are 3 pairs of like terms

  • 5x^2 \text{ and } 3x^2 which combine to 8x^2
  • 7x \text{ and } -2x which combine to 5x
  • 10 \text{ and } 4 which combine to 14

==========================================================

Now let's say we wanted to subtract those two functions.

f(x) = 5x^2+7x+10\\\\g(x) = 3x^2-2x+4\\\\f(x)-g(x) = (5x^2+7x+10)-(3x^2-2x+4)\\\\f(x)-g(x) = 5x^2+7x+10-3x^2+2x-4\\\\f(x)-g(x) = (5x^2-3x^2)+(7x+2x)+(10-4)\\\\f(x)-g(x) = 2x^2+9x+6\\\\

Notice in the fourth line, the negative distributes to each term inside the parenthesis. This is because we're subtracting off 3x^2 and also subtracting off -2x (i.e. adding 2x) and also subtracting off 4 all from f(x).

An angle is five times its supplement. Find both angles.
noname [10]
The measure of the smaller angle is 30 degrees.
The measure of the larger angle is 150 degrees.

What I did:
supplementary angle=180 degrees.
<span>An angle is five times its supplement=180/6=
30
30*5=150
150+30=180

The formula for the area of a triangle is a = bh, where b is the length of the base and h is the height. the equation solved for
Marina CMI [18]
Actually, the area of a triangle is a = bh/2. If a = 30 and b = 12:
30 = \frac{12h}{2}
30=6h
h=5
So he height is 5 units

❌❌PLEASE HELPILL MARK BRAINLIEST❌❌❌Does coordinate m or coordinate n represent a greater number in the following parallelogram?
Maru [420]

Answer:

The answer would be m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point would be (7,1)  If you look at the top two points, (3,5) and (10,5)  You can see that the y coordinates are the same.  They are both 5.  So on the bottom left (0,1) we know that are n will be 1 .  Now we have to figure out m.  If we look on the top (3,5) (10,5)  We can see from the x's 10 and 3, that they are a distance of 7 apart.  Since our bottom left hand corner is (0,1)  If we add 7 to 0 we get 7.  That makes m equal  7
