The value of the expression for (f + g)(x) is 5x−4

To find the sum of two functions

f(x) and g(x), denoted as (f+g)(x),

By adding their respective expressions:

(f + g)(x)=f(x) + g(x)

Given that f(x)=2x - 9 and

g(x) = 3x + 5, you can find

(f+g)(x) by adding their expression

(f+g)(x) = (2x−9) + (3x+5)

Combine like terms:

(f+g)(x)=2x+3x−9+5

Combine x terms and constants:

(f+g)(x)=5x−4

So, the expression for (f+g)(x) is 5x−4
