Given:

Two functions are given as below


\begin{gathered} f(x)=4x-3 \\ g(x)=x^3+2x \end{gathered}

Find:

we have to find the value of (f - g)(4).

Step-by-step explanation:

we will find the value of (f - g)(4) as following


\begin{gathered} (f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)=4x-3-(x^3+2x)=2x-x^3-3 \\ (f-g)(4)=2(4)-(4)^3-3=8-64-3=-59 \\ (f-g)(4)=-59 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the value of (f - g)(4) = -59
