Q. What is (f+g)(x)?f(x)=−5xg(x)=2x+3Write 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)
Substitute Functions: Substitute the given functions into the formula.We have: f(x)=−5xg(x)=2x+3Now, substitute these into the formula for (f+g)(x).(f+g)(x)=(−5x)+(2x+3)
Combine and Simplify: Combine like terms to simplify the expression.(f+g)(x)=−5x+2x+3Now, combine the x terms.(f+g)(x)=(−5x+2x)+3(f+g)(x)=−3x+3
