QuestionGiven f(x)=x210x+25f(x)=x^{2}-10 x+25 and g(x)=x29x+20g(x)=x^{2}-9 x+20, find (fg)(x)\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x) and simplify the resulting function.

Studdy Solution
Write the expression f(x)g(x)\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} using the factored forms:
f(x)g(x)=(x5)2(x4)(x5) \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{(x - 5)^2}{(x - 4)(x - 5)}
Cancel the common factor (x5)(x - 5) from the numerator and the denominator:
(x5)2(x4)(x5)=x5x4 \frac{(x - 5)^2}{(x - 4)(x - 5)} = \frac{x - 5}{x - 4}
The simplified function is:
fg(x)=x5x4 \frac{f}{g}(x) = \frac{x - 5}{x - 4}
