3. -4

Explanation:

1. (x+3)+(4x+1)

Take off the parentheses and Add.

5x+4

2. (x+3)(4x+1)

Use the FOIL method to multiply.


4x^2+x+12x+3


4x^2+13x+3

3. First, set up the equation as (g-h)(x)

(x+3)-(4x+1)

x+3-4x-1

Solve.

-3x+2

Substitute in 2 for x.

Answer:

for the first one, simply add g(x) and h(x) :

x+3 + 4x+1 = 5x + 4

the second one, you would multiply them :

(x+3)(4x+1) = 4x^2 + 13x + 3

the last one, you would subtract :

(x+3)-(4x+1) = -3x + 2

and then substitute 2 for 'x' :

-3*2 + 2 = -6 + 2 = -4
