f(x)+g(x)=3x^2+2x-2

Step-by-step explanation

to add two functions just add like terms,Like terms" are terms whose variables and their exponents, are the same

so

Step 1

let


\begin{gathered} f(x)=3x^2+1 \\ g(x)=2x-3 \end{gathered}

hence


f(x)+g(x)=3x^2+1+2x-3

we can see the only pair of like terms ar +1 and (-3), so


\begin{gathered} f(x)+g(x)=3x^2+1+2x-3 \\ \text{add like terms} \\ f(x)+g(x)=3x^2+2x-2 \end{gathered}

I hope this helps you
