To find \( f(x) + g(x) \), we first need to substitute the given expressions for \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) into the expression \( f(x) + g(x) \).

Given:
\( f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 + 1 \)
\( g(x) = 4x^3 - 5x + 7 \)

Substituting these values into the expression:
\( f(x) + g(x) = (x^3 - 2x^2 + 1) + (4x^3 - 5x + 7) \)

Next, combine like terms by adding the coefficients of each term:
\( f(x) + g(x) = (1 + 7) + (x^3 + 4x^3) + (-2x^2 - 5x) \)

Simplifying the coefficients:
\( f(x) + g(x) = 8 + 5x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x \)

Thus, \( f(x) + g(x) = 5x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x + 8 \).

To find \( f(x) - g(x) \), we first need to substitute the given expressions for \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) into the expression \( f(x) - g(x) \).

Given:
\( f(x) = \frac{2x+6}{3x} \)
\( g(x) = \frac{\sqrt{x} - 8}{3x} \)

Substituting these values into the expression:
\( f(x) - g(x) = \frac{2x+6}{3x} - \frac{\sqrt{x} - 8}{3x} \)

To subtract these fractions, we need a common denominator, which is \( 3x \):

\( f(x) - g(x) = \frac{(2x+6) - (\sqrt{x} - 8)}{3x} \)

Simplifying the numerator:
\( f(x) - g(x) = \frac{2x+6 - \sqrt{x} + 8}{3x} \)

Combining like terms:
\( f(x) - g(x) = \frac{2x + 8 - \sqrt{x} + 6}{3x} \)

Simplifying further:
\( f(x) - g(x) = \frac{2x + 14 - \sqrt{x}}{3x} \)

Thus, \( f(x) - g(x) = \frac{2x + 14 - \sqrt{x}}{3x} \)

To find the composite function that converts temperatures from degrees Kelvin to degrees Fahrenheit, we need to substitute the function \( C(x) = x - 273.15 \) into the function \( F(x) = \frac{9}{5}x + 32 \).

Substituting \( C(x) \) into \( F(x) \), we get:
\( F(C(x)) = \frac{9}{5}(x - 273.15) + 32 \)

Simplifying:
\( F(C(x)) = \frac{9}{5}x - \frac{9}{5}(273.15) + 32 \)

Further simplification:
\( F(C(x)) = \frac{9}{5}x - 491.67 + 32 \)

Combining constants:
\( F(C(x)) = \frac{9}{5}x - 459.67 \)

Therefore, the composite function that converts temperatures from degrees Kelvin to degrees Fahrenheit is:
\( F(C(x)) = \frac{9}{5}x - 459.67 \)

To determine the domain of the function \( f \circ g \), we need to consider the domain of \( g(x) \) and ensure that the output of \( g(x) \) falls within the domain of \( f(x) \).

Given:
\( f(x) = \frac{3x - 1}{x - 4} \)
\( g(x) = \frac{x + 1}{x} \)

To determine the domain of \( g(x) \), we need to find the values of \( x \) for which the denominator is not equal to zero.

In this case, we have \( x \neq 0 \), since division by zero is undefined.

Now, to find the domain of \( f \circ g \), we need to ensure that the output of \( g(x) \) falls within the domain of \( f(x) \), i.e., the denominator \( x - 4 \) should not be zero.

If \( x - 4 = 0 \), then \( x = 4 \).

Therefore, the domain of the function \( f \circ g \) is all real numbers \( x \) except \( x = 0 \) and \( x = 4 \).

To find \( f \circ g \), we need to substitute the function \( g(x) \) into the function \( f(x) \).

Given:
\( f(x) = \frac{2}{x + 3} \)
\( g(x) = \frac{1}{2x} \)

To find \( f \circ g \), we substitute \( g(x) \) into \( f(x) \):

\( f(g(x)) = f\left(\frac{1}{2x}\right) \)

Substituting \( g(x) \) into \( f(x) \):
\( f(g(x)) = \frac{2}{\frac{1}{2x} + 3} \)

Simplifying:
\( f(g(x)) = \frac{2}{\frac{1 + 6x}{2x}} \)

Inverting the denominator:
\( f(g(x)) = \frac{2x}{1 + 6x} \)

Therefore, \( f \circ g(x) = \frac{2x}{1 + 6x} \)

The correct answer is:

a) \( (f \circ g)(x) = \frac{4x}{1 + 6x} \)
