If f(x) = x² + 4x and g(x) = 3x − 5, find (f − g)(x).

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x² + x + 5

The governing rule for subtracting real-valued functions is (f − g)(x) = f(x) − g(x). Substitute the given expressions without dropping the brackets: (f − g)(x) = (x² + 4x) − (3x − 5). The minus sign applies to every term inside the second bracket, so this becomes x² + 4x − 3x + 5. Combining like terms gives x² + x + 5. Thus option A is correct. Option B fails to change the sign of the constant −5, and option C adds 4x and 3x instead of subtracting them. Option D changes the sign of the x-term incorrectly. The central algebraic precaution is to distribute the outer minus sign across both terms of g(x).
