Question

Consider the following functions.f(x) = x2 – 25 and g(x) = x + 5Step 1 of 4: Find (f + g)(x). Simplify your answer.Answer(+8)(x) =

Answer 1

Given:

$\begin{gathered} f(x)=x^2-25 \\ g(x)=x+5 \end{gathered}$

Required:

To find

$(f+g)(x)$

Explanation:

$\begin{gathered} (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x) \\ \\ =x^2-25+x+5 \\ \\ =x^2+x-20 \end{gathered}$

Final Answer:

$(f+g)(x)=x^2+x-20$
