Q. What is (f+g)(x)?f(x)=x+5g(x)=x2Write your answer as a polynomial or a rational function in simplest form.______
Identify Formula: Identify the formula for (f+g)(x). The correct formula is (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x).
Substitute Values: We have f(x)=x+5 and g(x)=x2. Substitute these values into the formula to get (f+g)(x)=(x+5)+x2.
Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation (f+g)(x)=(x+5)+x2 to find (f+g)(x).Since addition is commutative, we can rearrange the terms to write the polynomial in standard form, which typically starts with the highest power of x.(f+g)(x)=x2+x+5
