If f(x) = 3x+ 2 and g(x) = 2x-2, what is (f-8)(x)?

Sagot :

Answer: x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

    If it is asking us for (f - g)x, then we will subtract the function g from function f. Why? The x distributes creating f(x) - g(x), so we use this to solve.

   Given:

g(x) = 2x - 2

f(x) = 3x + 2

   Set up:

f(x) - g(x)

(3x + 2) - (2x - 2)

   Distribute the negatie:

3x + 2 - 2x + 2

   Reorder to combine like terms:

3x - 2x + 2 + 2

   Combine like terms:

x + 4

    (f - g)(x) = x + 4
