Evaluate the function f(x)= x^2 + 4x + 6 at the given values of the independent variable and
simplify.
a. f(-5)
b. f(x+9)
c. f(-x)

Respuesta :

Answer + Step-by-step explanation:

For each part of the question, fill in the given x (-5 and then x+9 and then -x) into the x^2 + 4x + 6 and do the squaring and times by 4 and add 6. This is three separate problems.

f(-5) means let x be -5.

(-5)^2 +4(-5) + 6

=25+ -20+6

=5+6

=11

f(-5) = 11

_______________

f(x+9) means let x be x+9. Just fill in x+9 in place of x and do the squaring and times by 4 and add 6.

(x+9)^2 + 4(x+9) + 6

=x^2 + 18x + 81 + 4x + 36 + 6

= x^2 +22x + 123

f(x+9) = x^2 + 22x + 123

f(-x) means let x be -x . Put -x in place of x and square it and times by 4 and add 6.

f(-x) = (-x)^2 + 4(-x) + 6

f(-x) = x^2 - 4x + 6
