Rational equations confuse me

Given f(x) = 10x + 4 and g(x) = 3x - 8, what is f(x) + g(x) ? - 7x - 4 - 13x + 4 - 7x + 4 - 13x - 4

According to the data set, where should the upper quartile line of the box plot be placed?

Consider this equation. |y + 6| = 2 what can be concluded of the equation? check all that apply. there will be one solution. there will be two solutions. the solution to –(y + 6) = 2 will be also be a solution to the given absolute value equation. the solution(s) will be the number(s) on the number line 2 units away from –6. the value of y must be positive since the variable is inside absolute value signs.
