Q. What is (f+g)(x)?f(x)=−2x+6g(x)=−x2Write your answer as a polynomial or a rational function in simplest form.______
Identify formula: Identify the formula for (f+g)(x).(f+g)(x) is the sum of f(x) and g(x).(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)
Given functions: We have: f(x)=−2x+6g(x)=−x2Now, we need to add these two functions to find (f+g)(x).(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)(f+g)(x)=(−2x+6)+(−x2)
Combine functions: Combine like terms to simplify the expression.(f+g)(x)=−x2−2x+6There are no like terms to combine further, so this is the simplest form.
