Example 1: Determine (f + g)(x), (f - g)(x), and (g - f)(x) for the following functions. f(x) = 4, g(x) = 2.5.

• (f + g)(x) = 6.5, (f - g)(x) = 1.5, (g - f)(x) = -1.5

• (f + g)(x) = 6.5, (f - g)(x) = 1.5, (g - f)(x) = 1.5

• (f + g)(x) = 6.5, (f - g)(x) = -1.5, (g - f)(x) = 1.5

• (f + g)(x) = 6.5, (f - g)(x) = -1.5, (g - f)(x) = -1.5
