f(x) = 2x + 6, g(x) = 4x^2 Find (f + g)(x). 8x^3 + 24x (2x+6)/(4x^2) 4x^2 + 2x + 6 -4x^2 + 2x + 6

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

(f + g)(x) is the same as f(x)+g(x)

OpenStudy (eyust707):

yes ^^^

OpenStudy (eyust707):

just add the two together...

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

So simply replace f(x) with 2x+6 and replace g(x) with 4x^2 to go from f(x)+g(x) to (2x+6)+(4x^2)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Combine like terms if you can and rearrange the terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x^2+2x+6?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that's it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you very much :D

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

In this case, there are no like terms, so you just rearrange in the proper order.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

OpenStudy (eyust707):
