Question

H(x) = x2 + 1 k(x) = x – 2

(h + k)(2) =

Answer 1

Answer:5

Explanation:

Answer 2

5

First you can add the two functions together, since that is what (h+k) is asking us to do.

x^2 + 1 + x - 2 ---> then simplify like terms
x^2 + x -1 ----> then plug in 2 for all of the x's in the equation
2^2 + 2 - 1 ----> and solve
4 + 2 - 1 = 5
