Question 960391: For f(x)=(3x^2)+5and g(x)=7x-2,
a. Verify: g(x + 2) ≠ g(x) + g(2).

b. Find (f – g)(x).

c. Using the resulting function in (b), show that (f – g)(2) = f(2) – g(2).
(The work should be different for each side of the equation.)

d. Is (fg)(0) =(f/g)(0)? Explain.

e. Find (f(x+h)-f(x))/h , h ≠ 0.

For



a. Verify:


first find



and



substitute it in





b. Find
since
, we have





c. Using the resulting function in (b), show that .
(The work should be different for each side of the equation.)








d. Is ? Explain.




.....so, the product (on the left side of equation) could not be same as the quotient (on the right side of equation)


e. Find , .
