Detailed Solution & Explanation

Given the functions:
f(x)=x21f(x) = x^2 - 1
g(x)=x+12g(x) = \frac{x + 1}{2}

**Step 1: Compute f(3)\displaystyle f(3)**
f(3)=321=91=8f(3) = 3^2 - 1 = 9 - 1 = 8

**Step 2: Compute g(3)\displaystyle g(3)**
g(3)=3+12=42=2g(3) = \frac{3 + 1}{2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2

**Step 3: Evaluate the expression f(3)f(3)+g(3)\displaystyle \frac{f(3)}{f(3) + g(3)}**
f(3)f(3)+g(3)=88+2=810=45\frac{f(3)}{f(3) + g(3)} = \frac{8}{8 + 2} = \frac{8}{10} = \frac{4}{5}

Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
