Solution
Solution Steps
To solve the given problem, we need to perform the following steps:
Addition of Functions (f+g): Add the functions f(x) and g(x).
Subtraction of Functions (f-g): Subtract the function g(x) from f(x).
Multiplication of Functions (fg): Multiply the functions f(x) and g(x).
Division of Functions (f/g): Divide the function f(x) by g(x).
Determine the Domain: For each operation, determine the domain where the resulting function is defined.
Step 1: Define the Functions
Given:
f(x)=x+9g(x)=x+2
Step 2: Calculate (f+g)(x)
(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)=x+9+x+2
Step 3: Determine the Domain of f+g
For f(x) and g(x) to be defined, the expressions inside the square roots must be non-negative:
x+9≥0⟹x≥−9x+2≥0⟹x≥−2
The domain of f+g is the intersection of these intervals:
x≥−2
In interval notation, this is:
[−2,∞)
Step 4: Calculate (f−g)(x)
(f−g)(x)=f(x)−g(x)=x+9−x+2
Step 5: Determine the Domain of f−g
The domain of f−g is the same as the domain of f+g since the same conditions apply:
[−2,∞)
Step 6: Calculate (fg)(x)
(fg)(x)=f(x)⋅g(x)=x+9⋅x+2=(x+9)(x+2)
Step 7: Determine the Domain of fg
The domain of fg is the same as the domain of f+g and f−g:
[−2,∞)
