For f(x) = 2x-1 and g(x) = 3x2 - 5x + 2, determine each of the following:
1. f(x) + g(x) a]. (f + g)(x) = 3x2 - 3x + 1 b]. (f + g)(x) = 3x2 - 7x + 1 c]. (f + g)(x) = 3x2 - 3x - 1
2. f(x) - g(x) a]. (f - g)(x) = 3x2 + 7x - 3 b]. (f - g)(x) = -3x2 + 7x - 3 c]. (f - g)(x) = 3x2 - 7x + 3
3. f(x) * g(x) a]. (fg)(x) = 6x3 - 13x2 + 9x - 1 b]. (fg)(x) = -6x3 + 13x2 - 9x + 1 c]. (fg)(x) = 6x3 - 10x - 3
4. f(g(x)) a]. f(g(x)) = 12x2 - 22x + 8 b]. f(g(x)) = 6x3 - 13x2 + 9x - 1 c]. f(g(x)) = 6x2 - 10x - 3
5. g(f(x))
a]. g(f(x)) = 12x2 - 22x + 8 b]. g(f(x)) = -7x - 4 c]. g(f(x)) = 6x2 - 10x - 3
6. f(f(x))
a]. 4x - 2
b]. 2x - 2
c]. 4x - 3
