Math Problem Statement
Theirsum, denoted by f+g, is the function denoted by (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)
Solution
Yes, that's correct!
The sum of two functions and , denoted by , is defined as:
This means that to find the value of the new function at any point , you simply add the values of and together.
If you have two functions:
- , and
- ,
Their sum is another function that for each input returns the sum of the outputs of and .
