Answer:

The required answer is:
-x^2+2x+8

Explanation:

We have been given the two function:


f(x)=2x+1

And
g(x)=x^2-7

We have to find (f-g)(x):


(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)


(2x+1)-(x^2-7)


2x+1-x^2+7


-x^2+2x+8

We will get the quadratic expression after the prescribed operation been applied.

Hence, the required answer is:
-x^2+2x+8

I hope this helps you



(f-g)(x)=2x+1-(x^2-7)



(f-g)(x)=2x+1-x^2+7


(f-g)(x)= -x^2+2x+8
