Q. What is (f∗g)(x)?f(x)=3x2g(x)=−5x+2Write 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 product of f(x) and g(x).(f∗g)(x)=f(x)∗g(x)
Given Functions: We have: f(x)=3x2g(x)=−5x+2Which function represents (f∗g)(x)?(f∗g)(x)=f(x)∗g(x)(f∗g)(x)=(3x2)∗(−5x+2)
Distribute Terms: Distribute 3x2 to both terms in g(x):(f⋅g)(x)=3x2⋅(−5x)+3x2⋅2
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication: f * g)(x) = \(-15x^3 + 6x^2\
Express as Polynomial: Express your answer as a simplified polynomial.The polynomial is already in simplest form, so no further simplification is needed.(f∗g)(x)=−15x3+6x2
