What does it mean to add two functions, f(x) and g(x)?

Back

To add two functions, you combine their outputs: (f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x).

Front

How do you subtract one function from another?

Back

To subtract two functions, you find the difference of their outputs: (f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x).

What is the formula for multiplying two functions, f(x) and g(x)?

Back

To multiply two functions, you multiply their outputs: (f * g)(x) = f(x) * g(x).

What is the formula for dividing two functions, f(x) and g(x)?

Back

To divide two functions, you divide their outputs: (f / g)(x) = f(x) / g(x), where g(x) ≠ 0.

If f(x) = x^2 and g(x) = x + 1, what is (f + g)(x)?

Back

(f + g)(x) = x^2 + (x + 1) = x^2 + x + 1.

Front

If f(x) = 2x + 3 and g(x) = x - 2, what is (f - g)(x)?

Back

(f - g)(x) = (2x + 3) - (x - 2) = x + 5.

Front

What is the domain of the function g(x) = 1/(x - 3)?

Back

The domain is all real numbers except x = 3, where the function is undefined.

Front

If f(x) = 3x^2 + 2 and g(x) = x, what is (f * g)(x)?

Back

(f * g)(x) = (3x^2 + 2) * x = 3x^3 + 2x.

Front

What is the result of (f / g)(x) if f(x) = x^2 + 1 and g(x) = x?

Back

(f / g)(x) = (x^2 + 1) / x, where x ≠ 0.
