Answer: x³ + x² - 3x - 3

Bria Chan · Answer 2

x³ + x² - 3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming g*f means g times f, so you want to multiply the two functions together.

(x² - 3) (x + 1) Since the product is 2 binomials, use FOIL

= x² (x) + x² (1) - 3 (x) - 3 (1)

which simplifies to

x³ + x² - 3x - 3
