How do you find f(x)+g(x),f(x)g(x),f(x)g(x),(fg)(x) given f(x)=3x7 and g(x)=x2+5x?

For f(x)+g(x) , you just simply add the two functions. That is:

f(x)+g(x)=3x7+x2+5x.

For f(x)g(x), the same applies, but now we are subtracting the two functions; that is:

f(x)g(x)=3x7x25x.

And we proceed like this to the other two cases:

f(x).g(x)=(3x7).(x2+5x)=3(x2+5x)x7.

f(x)g(x)=3x7x2+5x=3(x7)(x2+5x).
