add
\[x+9+x-9=2x\] i think
what was the question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
find (fx+g)(x)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i got x^2-81
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that would be \(f\times g(x)\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
add means add them

the answer is 2x and i dont understand y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you have:
f(x) =
and
g(x) =
??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no please explain
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the problem you posted askes for the sum of f(x) + g(x). I was wondering if they gave you what each of these functions are...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no thats all that was given

oh nvm this stupid thing confused me with the parantheses i thought i was supposed to foil because of the aprantheses which confuse me wow........ such a fail i get it now
OpenStudy (savvy):
(f+g)x means f(x) + g(x)
however you have been directly given (f+g)x = (x+9)+(x-9)
open the brackets and write
x + 9 + x - 9
rearrange
x + x + 9 - 9
cmbine like terms.
(x + x) + (9-9)
9-9 = 0
and x +x= 2x
so final answer is 2x + 0 = 2x
