Can someone give me a refresher on this? Let 𝑓(π‘₯) = 4π‘₯ + 1 π‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ 𝑔(π‘₯) = 2π‘₯ 2 βˆ’ 3 . Find (𝑓 βˆ’ 𝑔)(π‘₯)

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

(f-g)(x) just means subtract f(x) - g(x)

OpenStudy (alystar):

a) βˆ’2π‘₯^2 + 4π‘₯ + 4 b) βˆ’2π‘₯^2 + 4π‘₯ βˆ’ 4 c) 2π‘₯^2 βˆ’ 4π‘₯ + 2 d) 2π‘₯^2 βˆ’ 4π‘₯ + 4

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so it ends up being 4x + 1 - 2x^2 + 3

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

combine like terms

OpenStudy (alystar):

βˆ’2π‘₯^2 + 4π‘₯ + 4 correct?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

very good
