Question:
Let $f$ and $g$ be paths in $\mathbb R$. Show that $f$ is homotopic to $g$.
Answer:
Does the homotopy $F(x,t)=tf(x)+(1-t)g(x)$ is a proof for the statement?

Community wiki answer so the question can be marked as answered:
As noted in the comments, this is a correct homotopy. It proves that $f$ is homotopic to $g$.
