Question

If f(x)=x+8 and g(x)=-4x-3 find (f+g)(x)

Answer 1

for this case we have the following functions:

f (x) = x + 8

g (x) = -4x - 3

Subtracting the functions we have:

(f - g) (x) = f (x) - g (x)

(f - g) (x) = (x + 8) - (-4x - 3)

Rewriting:

(f - g) (x) = x + 8 + 4x + 3

(f - g) (x) = 5x + 11

Answer:

D. (f - g) (x) = 5x + 11
