Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = x² + 4x - 32

g(x) = x - 4

(f + g)(x) is f(x) + g(x)

Step 2: Find

  1. Substitute:                             (f + g)(x) = x² + 4x - 32 + (x - 4)
  2. Combine like terms (x):        (f + g)(x) = x² + 5x - 32 - 4
  3. Combine like terms (Z):        (f + g)(x) = x² + 5x - 36
