To find (f + g)(2), we first need to find f(2) and g(2), and then add the results together.

Given that f(x) = x - 1, we have:
f(2) = 2 - 1
f(2) = 1

Given that g(x) = x^2 + 3x - 6, we have:
g(2) = 2^2 + 3(2) - 6
g(2) = 4 + 6 - 6
g(2) = 4

Now, we can calculate (f + g)(2) by adding f(2) and g(2) together:
(f + g)(2) = f(2) + g(2)
(f + g)(2) = 1 + 4
(f + g)(2) = 5

Therefore, (f + g)(2) = 5.
