Given the functions:

f(x) = x^2 + 5x

g(x) = 2x + 1

Find f(5) + g(6)

Solution:

In order to find f(5) + g(6), we must first, solve for each function individually.

f(5) = (5)^2 + 5(5)

f(5) = 25 + 25

f(5) = 50

g(6) = 2(6) + 1

g(6) = 12 + 1

g(6) = 13

Equate the two values in the equation f(5) + g(6).

f(5) + g(6) = 50 + 13

f(5) + g(6) = 63

Final answer:

f(5) + g(6) = 63
