If g(x) = 4x - 3 and h(x) = -4x, what is g(5) + h(3)?

Sagot :

Answer:

g(5) + h(3) = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: solve each of the functions

g(x) =  4x - 3; g(5)

4x - 3          replace the x with 5

4(5) - 3        simplify the parenthesis

20 - 3          subtract

g(x) = 17

h(x) = -4x; h(3)

-4x              replace the x with 3

-4(3)             simplify

h(x) = -12

Step 2: add the results

g(x) = 17 + h(x) = -12

17 + (-12)

g(5) + h(3) = 5
