Answer:


x^2-3x+7

Explanations:

Given the sum of the functions expressed as:


\mleft(5x+3\mright)+x^2-8x+4

Collecting the like terms:


x^2+5x-8x+3+4

Group the terms based on their degrees


x^2+(5x-8x)+(3+4)

Simplify the result to determine the final answer:


\begin{gathered} x^2+(5x-8x)+(3+4) \\ x^2+(-3x)+7 \\ x^2-3x+7 \end{gathered}

Hence the required sum of the functions is x^2 - 3x + 7
