Help !! I'll fan and give a medal!!!

If f(x) = 2x and g(x) = 5x, calculate f(x) • g(x) so is that (2x*x)(5x*x) ?

OpenStudy (cgreenwade2000):

Multiply them together. Where are you getting another x from in both of those?

OpenStudy (cgreenwade2000):

f(x) doesn't equal 2x*x and g(x) doesn't equal 5x*x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ookay, thats where i was confused, lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its 10x right ?

OpenStudy (cgreenwade2000):

You only multiplied 2 times 5 there.

OpenStudy (cgreenwade2000):

3x*2x = 6*x*x= 6x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10xsquared ?

OpenStudy (cgreenwade2000):
