Answer: 4x³+29x²+40x-48

Explanation:

The product of two functions=f(x)·g(x)=fg(x)

Use FOIL method to simplify expression.

  • First
  • Outer
  • Inner
  • Later

f(x)·g(x)

=(4x²+13x-12)·(x+4)

=4x³+16x²+13x²+52x-12x-48

=4x³+29x²+40x-48

Answer: 4x³+29x²+40x-48

Explanation:

To solve f(x)·g(x), you multiply them together.

(4x²+13x-12)(x+4) [distribute by FOIL]

4x³+16x²+13x²+52x-12x-48 [combine like terms]

4x³+29x²+40x-48

Now, we know that f(x)·g(x)=4x³+29x²+40x-48.
