Q. What is (fg)(x)(f * g)(x)?\newlinef(x)=5x+4f(x) = 5x + 4\newlineg(x)=x2g(x) = -x^2\newlineWrite your answer as a polynomial or a rational function in simplest form.\newline______
  1. Identify Formula: Identify the formula for (fg)(x)(f * g)(x).(fg)(x)(f * g)(x) is the product of f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x).(fg)(x)=f(x)g(x)(f * g)(x) = f(x) * g(x)
  2. Function Representation: We have: \newlinef(x)=5x+4f(x) = 5x + 4 \newlineg(x)=x2g(x) = -x^2 \newlineWhich function represents (fg)(x)(f * g)(x)?\newline(fg)(x)=f(x)g(x)(f * g)(x) = f(x) * g(x)\newline(fg)(x)=(5x+4)(x2)(f * g)(x) = (5x + 4) * (-x^2)
  3. Distribute Terms: Distribute (x2)(-x^2) to each term in (5x+4)(5x + 4).
    (fg)(x)=5x(x2)+4(x2)(f * g)(x) = 5x * (-x^2) + 4 * (-x^2)
  4. Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication. (fg)(x)=5x34x2(f \cdot g)(x) = -5x^3 - 4x^2
