Answer

$f+g,f-g,fg$: all real numbers; $\frac{f}{g}$: all real numbers except $0$

Work Step by Step

For all but $\frac{f}{g}$, the domain includes all real numbers. To find the domain of $\frac{f}{g}$, set the denominator equal to $0$. $f+g=(x-6)+(5x^2)$ $f+g=5x^2+x-6$ $(-∞,∞)$ $f-g=(x-6)-(5x^2)$ $f-g=x-6-5x^2$ $(-∞,∞)$ $fg=(x-6)(5x^2)$ $fg=5x^3-30x^2$ $(-∞,∞)$ $\frac{f}{g}=\frac{x-6}{5x^2}$ $x\ne0$
