Answer

This cannot be simplified further, so the final answers are $f+g=3x^{2}-7x+21$, $f-g=x^{2}-7x-11$, $f \cdot g=2x^{4}-7x^{3}+37x^{2}-112x+80$, and $\frac{f}{g}=\frac{2x^{2}-7x+5}{x^{2}+16}$

Steps

Step 1 :First, we need to find the sum of the functions $f$ and $g$. This is done by adding the corresponding terms of the two functions together.

Step 2 :$f+g=(2x^{2}-7x+5)+(x^{2}+16)=3x^{2}-7x+21$

Step 3 :Next, we need to find the difference of the functions $f$ and $g$. This is done by subtracting the corresponding terms of $g$ from $f$.

Step 4 :$f-g=(2x^{2}-7x+5)-(x^{2}+16)=x^{2}-7x-11$

Step 5 :Then, we need to find the product of the functions $f$ and $g$. This is done by multiplying the corresponding terms of the two functions together.

Step 6 :$f \cdot g=(2x^{2}-7x+5) \cdot (x^{2}+16)=2x^{4}-7x^{3}+5x^{2}+32x^{2}-112x+80$

Step 7 :Finally, we need to find the quotient of the functions $f$ and $g$. This is done by dividing the corresponding terms of $f$ by $g$.

Step 8 :$\frac{f}{g}=\frac{2x^{2}-7x+5}{x^{2}+16}$

Step 9 :This cannot be simplified further, so the final answers are $f+g=3x^{2}-7x+21$, $f-g=x^{2}-7x-11$, $f \cdot g=2x^{4}-7x^{3}+37x^{2}-112x+80$, and $\frac{f}{g}=\frac{2x^{2}-7x+5}{x^{2}+16}$
