Let f(x)=x2−4x−2f(x)=\frac{x^{2}-4}{x-2} and g(x)=3x−6x−2g(x)=\frac{3x-6}{x-2}. (i) Simplify f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x) wherever they are defined. (ii) Obtain the simplified expression for (f+g)(x)(f+g)(x) and state its domain. (iii) Explain why the limit lim⁡x→2(f+g)(x)\displaystyle \lim_{x\to 2}(f+g)(x) exists even though neither ff nor gg is defined at x=2x=2, and find its value.
