Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Functions

We are given two functions: f(x)=4x25x f(x) = 4x^2 - 5x g(x)=3x2+6x4 g(x) = 3x^2 + 6x - 4

Step 2: Add the Functions

To find (f+g)(x)(f+g)(x), we add the two functions: (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)=(4x25x)+(3x2+6x4) (f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = (4x^2 - 5x) + (3x^2 + 6x - 4)

Step 3: Combine Like Terms

Combine the like terms:

  • Combine the x2x^2 terms: 4x2+3x2=7x24x^2 + 3x^2 = 7x^2
  • Combine the xx terms: 5x+6x=x-5x + 6x = x
  • The constant term is 4-4

Thus, (f+g)(x)=7x2+x4(f+g)(x) = 7x^2 + x - 4.

Final Answer

The correct expression for (f+g)(x)(f+g)(x) is: (f+g)(x)=7x2+x4 \boxed{(f+g)(x) = 7x^2 + x - 4}
