If g(x) = \(x^2+ 3x + 4\), find g(x + 1) - g(x)
The correct answer is B. 2(x + 2)
Certainly! Let's solve this question step by step:
Given function: \(g(x) = x^2 + 3x + 4\)
We want to find \(g(x + 1) - g(x)\).
First, let's find \(g(x + 1)\):
\[g(x + 1) = (x + 1)^2 + 3(x + 1) + 4\]
\[= x^2 + 2x + 1 + 3x + 3 + 4\]
\[= x^2 + 5x + 8\]
Now, subtract \(g(x)\) from \(g(x + 1)\) to find \(g(x + 1) - g(x)\):
\[g(x + 1) - g(x) = (x^2 + 5x + 8) - (x^2 + 3x + 4)\]
\[= x^2 + 5x + 8 - x^2 - 3x - 4\]
\[= 2x + 4\]
