Q. What is (fg)(x)(f * g)(x)?\newlinef(x)=5xf(x) = -5x\newlineg(x)=x24g(x) = x^2 - 4\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). The correct formula is (fg)(x)=f(x)g(x)(f * g)(x) = f(x) * g(x).
  2. Substitute Values: We have f(x)=5xf(x) = -5x and g(x)=x24g(x) = x^2 - 4. Substitute these values into the formula to get (fg)(x)=(5x)(x24)(f * g)(x) = (-5x) * (x^2 - 4).
  3. Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation (fg)(x)=(5x)(x24)(f * g)(x) = (-5x) * (x^2 - 4) to find (fg)(x)(f * g)(x).
    (fg)(x)=5xx2(5x)4(f * g)(x) = -5x * x^2 - (-5x) * 4
    (fg)(x)=5x3+20x(f * g)(x) = -5x^3 + 20x
