Question

If f (x)=x^2+1 and g(x) =x-4 which value is equivalent to f x g

Answer 1

A value of
`x^3 - 4x^2 + x - 4` is equivalent to
`f * g`

Explanation:

We are given the following functions:

`f(x) = x^2 + 1`

`g(x) = x - 4`

Which value is equivalent to f x g?

We multiply these functions, applying the distributive property. So

`f * g = (x^2+1)(x-4) = x^3 - 4x^2 + x - 4`

A value of
`x^3 - 4x^2 + x - 4` is equivalent to
`f * g`
