Q. What is (fg)(x)(f - g)(x)?\newlinef(x)=4x+5f(x) = 4x + 5\newlineg(x)=x2g(x) = x^2\newlineWrite your answer as a polynomial or a rational function in simplest form.\newline______
  1. Identify Formula: Identify the formula for (fg)(x)(f - g)(x). The correct formula is (fg)(x)=f(x)g(x)(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x).
  2. Substitute Values: We have f(x)=4x+5f(x) = 4x + 5 and g(x)=x2g(x) = x^2. Substitute these values into the formula to get (fg)(x)=(4x+5)(x2)(f - g)(x) = (4x + 5) - (x^2).
  3. Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation (fg)(x)=(4x+5)(x2)(f - g)(x) = (4x + 5) - (x^2) to find (fg)(x)(f - g)(x).\newline(fg)(x)=4x+5x2(f - g)(x) = 4x + 5 - x^2\newlineSince subtraction is distributive over addition, we can rewrite this as:\newline(fg)(x)=x2+4x+5(f - g)(x) = -x^2 + 4x + 5
