If [tex]f(x) = 2(x)^2 + 5 \sqrt{x+2}[/tex], complete the following statement:

[tex]f(2) = \_\_\_\_\_\_[/tex]

Asked by bsktbll23jordan

Answer (3)

f ( x ) is a fancy term for saying y . It is mainly used in Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and beyond.
f ( x ) = 2 x 2 + 5 x + 2 ​
plug in the 2 into the x .
f ( 2 ) = 2 ( 2 ) 2 + 5 2 + 2 ​
this gives:
f ( 2 ) = 8 + 5 4 ​
square the 4.
f ( 2 ) = 8 + 5 ( 2 )
multiply 5 and 2 .
f ( 2 ) = 8 + 10
add them together.
f ( 2 ) = 18
Glad to help.

By substituting x = 2 into the function f(x) = 2(x)² + 5√(x + 2) and simplifying the equation, the resulting value of f(2) is calculated to be 18. ;

The value of f(2) for the function f(x) = 2(x)^2 + 5√(x + 2) is calculated as 18 after substituting 2 into the function and simplifying. The steps include evaluating the squared term and the square root term. Final result: f(2) = 18.
