Answer:

B

Explanation:

We are given the two functions:


f(x) = 8 - 4x - x^3\text{ and } g(x) = x^2 + 7x - 9

And we want to find:


f(x) + g(x)

Substitute:


= (8 - 4x - x^3) + (x^2 + 7x - 9)

Rewrite:


= (-x^3) + (x^2) + (7x - 4x) + (8 - 9)

Combine like terms:


= -x^3 + x^2 +3x -1

In conclusion:


f(x) + g(x) = -x^3 + x^2 +3x -1

Hence, our answer is B.
