b) It includes points in Quadrant II.
c) It does not include points in Quadrant I.
d) It does not include points in Quadrant II.

3. If f(x) = 3x2 + 1 and g(x) = 1 – x, what is the value of (f – g)(2)?

a) 12
b) 14
c) 36
d) 38

Respuesta :

1. f(x) = 8 - 10xg(x) = 5x + 4
(fg)(x) = (8 - 10x)(5x + 4)(fg)(x) = 40x + 32 - 50x^2 - 40x(fg)(x) = 32 - 50x^2
(fg)(-2) = 32 - 50(-2)^2(fg)(-2) = 32 - 200(fg)(-2) = -168
2. Signs are inverted. Since, Q4 = (x , -y)Therefore Q? = (-x , y), which belongs to Quadrant 2.
b) It includes points in Quadrant II
3. f(x) = 3x^2 + 1g(x) = 1 - x
(f - g)(x) = 3x^2 + 1 - (1 - x)(f - g)(x) = 3x^2 + 1 - 1 + x(f - g)(x) = 3x^2 + x(f - g)(2) = 3(2)^2 + 2(f - g)(2) = 14

The answers are as follows:

  1. If f(x) = 8 - 10x and g(x) = 5x + 4, then the value of (f g)(-2) = -168. So, option b is correct.
  2. If f(x) is an odd function and its graph lies in the 4th quadrant, then statement (b) is true. I.e., it includes points in quadrant 2.
  3. If f(x) = 3x² + 1 and g(x) = 1 - x, the value of (f - g)(2) = 14. So, option b is correct.

What are the operations on functions?

The basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division on functions are as follows:

Addition: (f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

Subtraction: (f - g)x = f(x) - g(x)

Multiplication: (f g)x = f(x). g(x)

Division: (f/g)x = f(x)/g(x)

Calculation:

1) f(x) = 8 – 10x and g(x) = 5x + 4,

Then,

(f g) (-2) = f(-2) × g(-2)

             = (8 - 10(-2)) × (5(-2) + 4)

             = 28 × (-6)

             = -168

So, option b is correct.

2) f(x) is an odd function, so the graph of f(x) includes points in Quadrant IV

Since it is odd function,

f(-x) = - f(x)

So, for the negative values of x, the function f(x) lies in the second qudrant.

Thus, option b is correct.

3) If f(x) = 3x² + 1 and g(x) = 1 – x,

Then,

(f – g)(2) = f(2) -g(2)

              = (3(2)²+1) - (1 - 2)

              = 13 + 1

              = 14

So, option b is correct.
