first find g(3) tell me how would you find taht ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2*3^2-9

Nnesha (nnesha):

how did you get -9 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

by combining +1and -10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am i right @Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

no why did you combine 1 -10 ? to find g(3) substitute x for 3 in g(x) function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so it would be 2*3^2-10+1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

yep but put he parentheses 2(3^2-10)+1
