f(x) = 3x³ - 4x² + 5

g(x) = x² + 2x - 6

f(x) + g(x) = 3x³ - 4x² + 5 + x² + 2x - 6

f(x) + g(x) = 3x³ - 3x² + 2x - 1

To find this answer, we are going to combine like terms, meaning that we are going to combine terms that have the same variables with the same exponents (for example,
3x^2 and
8x^2 equals
11x^2).



f(x) + g(x)


(3x^3 - 4x^2 + 5) + (x^2 + 2x - 6)


\boxed{f(x) + g(x) = 3x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x - 1}
