Question 1002709: Did I solve these problems correctly?
1. f(x)=-3x + 2
g(x)=3x^2 -x + 2 Find (f + g)(x)
-3x+2+(3x^2-x+2)
=3x^2-3x-x+4
=3x^2-4x-4
2. f(x)=x -1
g(x)=2x^2 -2x -5
Find g(f(x) )
2x^2 -2x -5(x-1)
=2x^2 -2x -5x+5
=2x^2 -7x+5
3. f(x)=3x + 2
g(x)= -2x2 -3x + 5
Find g(f(x) )
-2x^2-3x+5(3x+2)
= -2x^2-3x+15x+10
=12x-2x^2+10

I'm sorry but no for 2 and 3....For g(f(x))
2.)
f(x)=x -1
g(x)=2x^2 -2x -5

You are plugging what F(x) equals into the input for g(x). So
2(x-1)^2-2(x-1)-5
Then solve..Be careful of your signs
Do the same for number 3.

1. f(x)=-3x + 2
g(x)=3x^2 -x + 2 Find (f + g)(x)
-3x+2+(3x^2-x+2)
=3x^2-3x-x+4
=3x^2-4x-4=> correct -4:=3x%5E2-4x%2B4
2. f(x)=x -1
g(x)=2x^2 -2x -5
Find g(f(x) )
2x^2 -2x -5(x-1)
=2x^2 -2x -5x+5
=2x^2 -7x+5
g%28f%28x%29+%29
=g%28x+-1+%29
=2%28x+-1+%29%5E2+-2%28x+-1+%29+-5
=2%28x%5E2+-2x%2B1+%29+-%282x+-2+%29+-5
=2x%5E2-4x%2B2-2x%2B2-5=2x%5E2-6x-1

3. f(x)=3x + 2
g(x)= -2x^2 -3x + 5
Find g(f(x) )
-2x^2-3x+5(3x+2)
= -2x^2-3x+15x+10
=12x-2x^2+10
g%28f%28x%29+%29
=g%283x+%2B+2+%29
=-2%283x+%2B+2+%29%5E2+-3%283x+%2B+2+%29+%2B+5
=-2%289x%5E2+%2B+18x%2B4+%29+-%289x+%2B+6+%29+%2B+5
=-18x%5E2+-36x-8+-9x+-+6++%2B+5
=-18x%5E2+-45x-14++%2B+5
=-18x%5E2+-45x-9
