For the function f defined by f(x) = 2x^2 – 3x, evaluate: f(x+3)

Respuesta :

Answer:

2x² + 9x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(x + 3) substitute x = x + 3 into f(x), that is

f(x + 3) = 2(x + 3)² - 3(x + 3) ← expand (x + 3)² using FOIL

            = 2(x² + 6x + 9) - 3(x + 3) ← distribute both parenthesis

           = 2x² + 12x + 18 - 3x - 9 ← collect like terms

            = 2x² + 9x + 9

Answer: f(5) = 14 should be the answer
