The image contains a list of given functions and several operations to solve. The functions are:

- \( f(x) = 2x + 3 \)
- \( g(x) = 3x - 2 \)
- \( h(x) = 6x^2 + 5x - 6 \)

The tasks are numbered, so let's go through them one by one:

### 1. \( (f+g)(x) \)
This means adding the functions \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \):
\[
(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = (2x + 3) + (3x - 2) = 5x + 1
\]

### 2. \( (f+g)(-2) \)
This means evaluating \( (f + g)(x) \) at \( x = -2 \):
\[
(f + g)(-2) = 5(-2) + 1 = -10 + 1 = -9
\]

### 3. \( (f \cdot g)(x) \)
This is the product of \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \):
\[
(f \cdot g)(x) = f(x) \cdot g(x) = (2x + 3)(3x - 2)
\]
Expanding this product:
\[
(2x + 3)(3x - 2) = 2x(3x) + 2x(-2) + 3(3x) + 3(-2)
= 6x^2 - 4x + 9x - 6 = 6x^2 + 5x - 6
\]

### 4. \( (f \cdot g)(2) \)
This means evaluating \( (f \cdot g)(x) \) at \( x = 2 \):
\[
(f \cdot g)(2) = 6(2)^2 + 5(2) - 6 = 6(4) + 10 - 6 = 24 + 10 - 6 = 28
\]

### 5. \( (f \cdot g)(x) \) (same as Task 3)
We already solved this in Task 3:
\[
(f \cdot g)(x) = 6x^2 + 5x - 6
\]

### 6. \( (f \cdot g)(-2) \)
This means evaluating \( (f \cdot g)(x) \) at \( x = -2 \):
\[
(f \cdot g)(-2) = 6(-2)^2 + 5(-2) - 6 = 6(4) - 10 - 6 = 24 - 10 - 6 = 8
\]

### 7. \( \frac{f}{h}(x) \)
This is the ratio \( \frac{f(x)}{h(x)} \):
\[
\frac{f}{h}(x) = \frac{2x + 3}{6x^2 + 5x - 6}
\]

### 8. \( \frac{f}{h}(-1) \)
This means evaluating \( \frac{f}{h}(x) \) at \( x = -1 \):
\[
f(-1) = 2(-1) + 3 = -2 + 3 = 1
\]
\[
h(-1) = 6(-1)^2 + 5(-1) - 6 = 6(1) - 5 - 6 = 6 - 5 - 6 = -5
\]
Thus:
\[
\frac{f}{h}(-1) = \frac{1}{-5} = -\frac{1}{5}
\]
