To find h(x) = f(x) + g(x), add the corresponding terms from f(x) and g(x): (2x^12 + 4x + 5) + (5x^12 - 3x) = 7x^12 + x + 5. However, the correct calculation should be (2x^12 + 4x + 5) + (5x^12 - 3x) = 7x^12 + x + 5, but none of the options match this result. Given the options, A seems to be a typo meant to represent the correct sum of f(x) and g(x), but with an error in the coefficients. The correct process involves adding the coefficients of like terms, but none of the provided choices accurately reflects the correct sum based on the given functions.
