Hey, there! For this question, we can just start by plugging in the known values.
(f + g)(x) can be rewritten as
((x)/(2) - 3 + 3x^2 + x - 6)(x).

Combine like terms:
((x)/(2) + x - 3 - 6 + 3x^2)(x)

If you add x to
(x)/(2), x will become
(2x)/(2), which means that x/2 + x = 3/2x.

-->
((3)/(2)x - 9 + 3x^2)(x)

If you rearrange this, then your answer will be option b. Hope this helps.

f(x) =
(x)/(2) - 3

+ g(x) = 3x² + x - 6

f(x) + g(x) = 3x² +
(x)/(2) + x -3 - 6

= 3x² +
(3)/(2)x - 9

Answer: B
