Mathematics Question on Relations and functions

Let f, g:R\toR be defined, respectively by f(x) = x+1, g(x) = 2x-3. Find f+g, f-g and fg\frac fg.

Answer

f, g: R\toR is defined as f(x) = x+1, g(x) = 2x-3
(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = (x+1) + (2x-3) = 3x-2
∴ (f+g)(x) = 3x-2

(f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) = (x+1) - (2x-3) = x+1-2x+3 = - x+4
∴ (f-g)(x) = -x+4

(fg\frac fg)(x) = f(x)g(x)\frac {f(x)}{g(x)}, g(x)≠0,x∈R
(fg\frac fg)(x) = x+12x3\frac {x+1}{2x-3}, 2x-3≠0 or 2x≠3
(fg\frac fg)(x) = x+12x3\frac {x+1}{2x-3}, x≠32\frac 32
