Answer:
[tex]f(a)+g(a)=6a-2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the two functions:
[tex]f(a)=2a-1\text{ and } g(a)=4a-1[/tex]
And we want to find f(a) + g(a).
So, substitute:
[tex]f(a)+g(a)[/tex]
This is the same as:
[tex]=(2a-1)+(4a-1)[/tex]
Combine like terms:
[tex]=(2a+4a)+(-1-1)[/tex]
Add or subtract:
[tex]=6a-2[/tex]
And we're done!
