If f(x) = x^2 + 1 and g(x) = 3x + 1, find [f(2)-g(1)]^2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you need to find \(f(2)\) first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isn't it 5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is then find \(g(1)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes 4!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then subtract

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5-4 or 4-5? either way its 1 or -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not that it makes any difference for the final result in this problem but since it says \[(f(2)-g(1))^2\] you want \(5-4=1\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then square it and you are done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well 1 squared is still 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol thank you :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw now i have a question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay idk if I will be able to answer it if it is math but shoot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is with all the zeros and ones ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its binary code if you put it in a binary code translator it translates it to something I dont even remember what it says its old info about me probably

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol ok maybe i will try it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol its not hard just google binary translator you can get it translated there I dont know how accurate it is because I wrote that binary lol
