Find f(x-1) when f(x) = 4x^2 – 3x + 3 ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

... 4(x-1)^2 - 3(x-1) + 3 expand it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sub in (x-1) in all of the x's in your equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Like @nphuongsun93 did.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok then what

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When you spuare a term you are multipliying it by itself. Write it out like this 4(x-1)(x-1) - 3(x-1) + 3. The first step is to expand ^ the (x-1)(x-1).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Did you do it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x^2 – 11x + 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4(x^2 - 2x + 1) try expanding again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x^2 + 9x + 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:/ right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mm the answer you gave me is not the chooses i have

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its zero

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what r ur choices?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x^2 – 11x + 10 4x^2 + 9x + 4 4x^2 – 11x + 4 -11x^2 + 4x + 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its the first one

OpenStudy (anonymous):
