Answer:


(f - g)(x) = x^2 + x-21


(f - g)(10) = 89


(f/g)(x) = (x^2 - 10)/(11 - x)

Explanation:

Given


f(x) = x^2 - 10


g(x) = 11 - x

Solving (1): (f-g)(x)


(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

Substitute values for f(x) and g(x)


(f - g)(x) = x^2 - 10 - (11 - x)

Open Bracket


(f - g)(x) = x^2 - 10 - 11 + x


(f - g)(x) = x^2 -21 + x

Reorder


(f - g)(x) = x^2 + x-21

Solving (2): (f-g)(10)

In (1)


(f - g)(x) = x^2 + x-21

So:


(f - g)(10) = 10^2 + 10-21


(f - g)(10) = 100 + 10-21


(f - g)(10) = 89

Solving (3): (f/g)(x)


(f/g)(x) = (f(x))/(g(x))

Substitute values for f(x) and g(x)


(f/g)(x) = (x^2 - 10)/(11 - x)
