If \(f(x)=x^2+ax\) and \(g(x)=bx+1\), and \((f-g)(x)=x^2-5x-1\), what is the value of \(a-b\)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(-5\)

\((f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)=x^2+ax-(bx+1)=x^2+(a-b)x-1\). Comparing this with the given expression \(x^2-5x-1\), the coefficient of \(x\) gives \(a-b=-5\). Hence, option A is correct. Exam tip: compare corresponding coefficients, and do not assume that \(a\) and \(b\) individually are determined when only their difference is given.
