Final Answer: (a) f+g=x25x+4 (b) fg=x27x4 (c) fg=x32x224x (d) f/g=x26xx+4

Steps

Step 1 :Given that f(x)=x26x and g(x)=x+4

Step 2 :For part (a), we need to add the functions f(x) and g(x). This means we add the corresponding terms of the functions. So, f+g=x26x+x+4=x25x+4

Step 3 :For part (b), we need to subtract the function g(x) from f(x). This means we subtract the corresponding terms of g(x) from f(x). So, fg=x26x(x+4)=x27x4

Step 4 :For part (c), we need to multiply the functions f(x) and g(x). This means we multiply each term of f(x) with each term of g(x) and then add the results. So, fg=(x26x)(x+4)=x32x224x

Step 5 :For part (d), we need to divide the function f(x) by g(x). This means we divide each term of f(x) by g(x). So, f/g=(x26x)/(x+4)

Step 6 :Final Answer: (a) f+g=x25x+4 (b) fg=x27x4 (c) fg=x32x224x (d) f/g=x26xx+4
