QuestionThe graph of two functions, f and g , is illustrated below. Use the graph to answer parts (a) through ( f ). (a) (f+g)(3)=(\mathrm{f}+\mathrm{g})(3)= \square (Simplify your answer.)

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are given the values of the functions f(x) f(x) and g(x) g(x) at x=3 x = 3 .
2. We need to find the value of the sum of the functions (f+g)(3) (f + g)(3) .
3. The operation (f+g)(x) (f + g)(x) represents the sum of the function values at a specific x x .

STEP 2

1. Identify the values of f(3) f(3) and g(3) g(3) from the graph.
2. Calculate the sum (f+g)(3) (f + g)(3) .

STEP 3

From the graph, identify the value of f(3) f(3) . According to the image description, f(3)=4 f(3) = 4 .

STEP 4

From the graph, identify the value of g(3) g(3) . According to the image description, g(3)=1 g(3) = 1 .

STEP 5

Calculate the sum (f+g)(3) (f + g)(3) by adding the values obtained:
(f+g)(3)=f(3)+g(3)=4+1 (f + g)(3) = f(3) + g(3) = 4 + 1

STEP 6

Simplify the expression:
4+1=5 4 + 1 = 5
Thus, (f+g)(3)=5 (f + g)(3) = 5 .
The value of (f+g)(3) (f + g)(3) is 5\boxed{5}.
