So the correct answer is:


\( (f + g)(x) = 3x^3 + 2x + 6 \)

Option A.

To find
\( (f + g)(x) \), you simply add the functions f(x) and g(x) together. Here's how you do it step by step:

1. Write down the given functions:


\( f(x) = 3x^3 + 10 \)


\( g(x) = 2x - 4 \) \lim_(n \to \infty) a_n

2. Add the functions together by combining like terms:


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


\( (f + g)(x) = (3x^3 + 10) + (2x - 4) \)

3. Simplify the expression by adding the constants and keeping the other terms separate since they are not like terms:


\( (f + g)(x) = 3x^3 + 2x + 10 - 4 \)


\( (f + g)(x) = 3x^3 + 2x + 6 \)
