The function f(x) = 2x + 210 represents the number of calories burned when exercising, where x is the number of hours
spent exercising.
The function g(x) = 2x + 125 represents the calorie deficit that occurs when following a particular diet, where x is the
number of hours spent exercising.
What is (f + g)(2)? Explain.

A. 214 burned just exercise 2 hours
B. 214 burned exercise and
diet 2 hours
C. 343 burned dieting 2 hours
D. 343 burned exercise and diet 2 hours.

Respuesta :

The Answer is D

I took the Test and got the question Correct!

The true statement about (f + g)(2) is (D). 343 burned exercise and diet 2 hours.

The functions are given as:

f(x) = 2x+ 210

g(x) =2x + 125

Start by calculating (f + g)(x) using:

(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

So, we have:

[tex](f + g)(x) = 2x + 210 + 2x + 125[/tex]

This gives

[tex](f + g)(x) = 4x + 335[/tex]

When x = 2, we have:

[tex](f + g)(x) = 4*2 + 335[/tex]

[tex](f + g)(x) = 343[/tex]

This means that 343 calories were burned by exercising and dieting for 2 hours
