Answer:

(f - g)( x ) = -x + 7

Domain;


(-\infty,\infty)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the below functions;


\begin{gathered} f(x)=8x+5 \\ g(x)=9x-2 \end{gathered}

To find (f - g)( x ), all we need to do is subtract g(x) from f(x) as shown below;


\begin{gathered} (f-g)\mleft(x\mright)=(8x+5)-(9x-2) \\ =8x+5-9x+2 \\ =8x-9x+5+2 \\ =-x+7 \end{gathered}

The domain of the function will be all values from negative infinity to positive infinty, written as;


(-\infty,\infty)
