1. What is (f−g)(x)?
f(x)=x4−x2+9
g(x)=x3+3x2+12
2. What is (f⋅g)(x)?
f(x)=x2+2x−6
g(x)=x4+3
3. What is (f+g)(x)?
f(x)=x3−x
g(x)=x3+2x2−10
1. What is (f−g)(x)?
f(x)=x^4−x^2+9
g(x)=x^3+3x^2+12
f - g = [ x^4 - x^2 + 9 ] - [ x^3 + 3x^2 + 12 ] =
x^4 -- x^3 - x^2 + 3x^2 + 9 - 12 =
x^4 - x^3 + 2x^2 - 3
2. What is (f⋅g)(x)?
f(x)=x^2+2x−6
g(x)=x^4+3
f*g = ( x^2 + 2x + 6) ( x^4 + 3) =
x^2 + 2x + 6 multiply each term on top by 3 and then by x^4
x x^4 + 3
____________
3x^2 + 6x + 18
+ x^6 + 2x^5 + 6x^4
________________
x^6 + 2x^5 + 6x^4 + 3x^2 + 6x + 18
3. What is (f+g)(x)?
f(x)=x^3−x
g(x)=x^3+2x^2−10
f + g = [ x^3 - x ] + [ x^3 + 2x^2 - 10 ] = 2x^3 + 2x^2 - x - 10
