Q. What is

(f * g)(x)

?

\newline

f(x) = 3x + 3

\newline

g(x) = -3x

\newline

Write your answer as a polynomial or a rational function in simplest form.

\newline

______

Multiply Functions: To find the product of two functions, $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ , we multiply them together. We have $f(x) = 3x + 3$ and $g(x) = -3x$ . Now, we will multiply $f(x)$ by $g(x)$ . $(f * g)(x) = f(x) * g(x)$ $(f * g)(x) = (3x + 3) * (-3x)$
Distribute $-3x$ : Distribute the $-3x$ across the terms in the parentheses. $\newline$ $(f \cdot g)(x) = 3x \cdot (-3x) + 3 \cdot (-3x)$
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication for each term. $\newline$ $(f * g)(x) = -9x^2 - 9x$
Final Answer: The expression is already simplified and there are no like terms to combine. $\newline$ So, the final answer is $(f * g)(x) = -9x^2 - 9x$ .
