let f(x)= 7x-2 and g(x)= sqrt (x) + 2x. what are (f+g)(x) and (f-g)(x)?

Sagot :

Answer:

• [tex](f+g) (x)[/tex]  = [tex]9x + \sqrt{x} -2[/tex]

• [tex](f-g)(x)[/tex] = [tex]5x - \sqrt x - 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]f(x) = 7x - 2[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = \sqrt{x} + 2x[/tex]

To calculate [tex](f+g) (x)[/tex] and [tex](f-g)(x)[/tex], we have to add and subtract [tex]f(x)[/tex] and [tex]g(x)[/tex] respectively:

• [tex](f+g) (x)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]f(x) + g(x)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]7x - 2 \: + \sqrt{x} + 2x[/tex]

⇒ [tex]9x + \sqrt{x} -2[/tex]

• [tex](f-g)(x)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]7x - 2 - (\sqrt x + 2x)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]7x - 2 - \sqrt x - 2x[/tex]

⇒ [tex]5x - \sqrt x - 2[/tex]
