Q. What is

(f * g)(x)

?

\newline

f(x) = x^2

\newline

g(x) = 4x + 2

\newline

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

\newline

______

Identify Formula: Identify the formula for $(f * g)(x)$ . $(f * g)(x)$ is the product of $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ . $(f * g)(x) = f(x) * g(x)$
Calculate Product: We have: $\newline$ $f(x) = x^2$ $\newline$ $g(x) = 4x + 2$ $\newline$ Now, calculate the product of $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ . $\newline$ $(f * g)(x) = f(x) * g(x)$ $\newline$ $(f * g)(x) = x^2 * (4x + 2)$
Distribute Terms: Distribute $x^2$ across the terms in the parentheses. $\newline$ $(f * g)(x) = x^2 * 4x + x^2 * 2$ $\newline$ $(f * g)(x) = 4x^3 + 2x^2$
Simplify Polynomial: Express your answer as a simplified polynomial. $\newline$ The polynomial $4x^3 + 2x^2$ is already in its simplest form.
