If f is the identity function and g is the absolute value function then find the following instructions
1) f+g
2) f-g
3) fg
4) f?g

Dear Student,

Assuming that the ? Is used for division and every part is as written in solution section
Then the solution is :-

If f is identity function and g is absolute value function
For x  0
f(x) = x and g(x) = |x| = x
1) (f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = x + x = 2x
2) (f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) = x - x = 0
3) (fg)(x) = f(x) g(x) = x×x = x​​​​​​2​​​​​
4) (fg)(x) = f(x)g(x) = xx = 1
for x<0
f(x) = x and g(x) =|x| = -x
1) (f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = x-x = 0
2) (f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) = x-(-x) = 2x
3) (fg)(x) = f(x) g(x) = -x​​​​​2​​​​
4) (fg) (x) = f(x)g(x) = x-x = -1
