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).

a small bridge sit atop for cube shaped powers that all have the same volume. The combined volume of the four pillars is 503 how
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

60 inches long are the sides of the pillars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A small bridge sits atop four cube shaped pillars that all have the same volume. the combined volume of the four pillars is 500 ft cubed.

To find : How many inches long are the sides of the pillars?

Solution :

Refer the attached picture below for Clarence of question.

The volume of the cube is V=a^3

Where, a is the side.

The combined volume of the four pillars is 500 ft cubed.

The volume of each cube is given by,

V=\frac{500}{4}=125\ ft^3

Substitute in the formula to get the side,

125=a^3

a=\sqrt[3]{125}

a=5\ ft

We know, 1 feet = 12 inches

So, 5 feet =5\times 12=60 inches

Therefore, 60 inches long are the sides of the pillars.

Without graphing, tell whether the line containing (4, 2) and (4, 9) is horizontal, vertical, or neither.
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Vertical.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is vertical because 4 + 4 (adding both X-axis, totalling 8) is smaller than 9 + 2 (adding both Y-axis, totalling 11), so the Y-axis, which is vertical, is bigger.
