Consider the following functions
### Functions and Their Operations

Given the functions \( f(x) = x - 3 \) and \( g(x) = x^2 \).

#### Problem 1: Addition of Functions
**Find \((f + g)(x)\):**

\[ (f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = (x - 3) + x^2 \]

\[ = x^2 + x - 3 \]

- The answer is correctly boxed:

\[ \boxed{x^2 + x - 3} \]

**Find the domain of \((f + g)(x)\). (Enter your answer using interval notation.)**

- The answer is:
\[ \boxed{(-\infty, \infty)} \]
However, it is marked incorrect with a red X. 

#### Problem 2: Subtraction of Functions
**Find \((f - g)(x)\):**

\[ (f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) = (x - 3) - x^2 \]

\[ = -x^2 + x - 3 \]

**Find the domain of \((f - g)(x)\). (Enter your answer using interval notation.)**

- The answer is:
\[ \boxed{(-\infty, \infty)} \]

#### Problem 3: Multiplication of Functions
**Find \((fg)(x)\):**

\[ (fg)(x) = f(x) \cdot g(x) = (x - 3) \cdot x^2 \]

\[ = x^3 - 3x^2 \]

**Find the domain of \((fg)(x)\). (Enter your answer using interval notation.)**

- The answer is:
\[ \boxed{(-\infty, \infty)} \]

#### Problem 4: Division of Functions
**Find \((\frac{f}{g})(x)\):**

\[ \left( \frac{f}{g} \right)(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{x-3}{x^2} \]

\[ \boxed{\frac{x-3}{x^2}} \]

This boxed expression is marked incorrect with a red X.
