Answer:  The correct option is

(C) [tex]6(3)-4+3^2.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given two functions f(x) and g(x) as follows :

[tex]f(x)=4-x^2,\\\\g(x)=6x.[/tex]

We know that for any two functions p(x) and q(x), we have

[tex](p-q)(x)=p(x)-q(x).[/tex]

Therefore, we get

[tex](g-f)(x)=g(x)-f(x)=6x-(4-x^2)=6x-4+x^2\\\\\\\Rightarrow (g-f)(3)=6(3)-4+3^2.[/tex]

Thus, (C) is the correct option.
