Q. What is (fg)(x)(f - g)(x)?\newlinef(x)=4xf(x) = -4x\newlineg(x)=2x2+2xg(x) = -2x^2 + 2x\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). \newline(fg)(x)(f - g)(x) is the difference of f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x). \newline(fg)(x)=f(x)g(x)(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)
  2. Substitute f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x): We have: \newlinef(x)=4xf(x) = -4x \newlineg(x)=2x2+2xg(x) = -2x^2 + 2x \newlineSubstitute f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x) into the formula for (fg)(x)(f - g)(x). \newline(fg)(x)=f(x)g(x)(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) \newline(fg)(x)=(4x)(2x2+2x)(f - g)(x) = (-4x) - (-2x^2 + 2x)
  3. Simplify expression: Simplify the expression by distributing the negative sign and combining like terms. \newline(fg)(x)=4x+2x22x(f - g)(x) = -4x + 2x^2 - 2x \newline(fg)(x)=2x24x2x(f - g)(x) = 2x^2 - 4x - 2x \newline(fg)(x)=2x26x(f - g)(x) = 2x^2 - 6x
