Use the functions m(x) = 4x + 5 and n(x) = 8x − 5 to complete the function operations listed below. Part A: Find (m + n)(x). Show your work. (3 points) Part B: Find (m ⋅ n)(x). Show your work. (3 points) Part C: Find m[n(x)]. Show your work. (4 points)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

(m + n)x = 4x + 5 + 8x - 5

(m + n)x = 12x   The fives cancel

Part B

(m - n)x = 4x + 5 - 8x + 5

(m - n)x = -4x + 10

Part C

The trick here is to put n(x) into m(x) wherever m(x) has an x.

m[n(x)] = 5(n(x)) + 5

m[n(x)] = 5(8x - 5) + 5

m[n(x)] = 40x - 20 + 5

m[n(x)] = 40x - 15
