Question

PLEASE HELP ME

If f(x) = -3 and g(x) = 4x2 + x = 4, find (f+ g)(x).
ОА
A. 4x2 + x - 1
O B. 6x2 - 7
O 4x
C. 43+ + 2x-1
O D. 4x+3x-7

Answer 1

The answer is C.

Explanation:

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

So that would be x/2-3 + 4x^2+x-4.

If you combine like terms that would be:

4x^2+x/2+x-4-3=

4x^2+3/2x-7

Answer 2

D. 4x² + 3x/2 - 7

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

f(x) = x/2 - 3

g(x) = 4x² + x - 4

(f + g)(x) is f(x) + g(x)

Step 2: Find

1. Substitute in functions: (f + g)(x) = x/2 - 3 + 4x² + x - 4
2. Combine like terms: (f + g)(x) = 4x² + 3x/2 - 7
