Question

Let f(x)=−3x and g(x)=2x−1. Find the value of f(x)+g(x).

A) −x−1
B) There is no correct answer given.
C) 4x−4
D) 5x−1

Answer 1

The value of f(x) + g(x) is found by adding the functions together, which results in −x − 1. The correct answer is A) −x − 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of f(x) + g(x), simply add the functions together:

f(x) = −3x

g(x) = 2x − 1

Adding these we get:

f(x) + g(x) = (−3x) + (2x − 1)

Combine like terms:

f(x) + g(x) = −x − 1

The correct answer is A) −x − 1.
