@quickstudent

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

Help :/

alones (alones):

You mean this? \[g(x) = x^2 + 2\]

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

Yes,

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

What would I do first?

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

.-.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

You need to input 3 for wherever x is located.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[g(3) = (3)^2 + 2\]

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

wait, is that what that means does x = 3?

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

I see that now I have to get the g by it's self but does it having an exponent change the way I would do it?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

You can think of it that way. It's just that you would need to substitute 3 for wherever x would be.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

You don't have to worry about the g.

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

SO what's my first step?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Just solve \(3^2 + 2\)

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

11

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Yes so g(3) = 11

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

Wait oohh. I get it now

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):

Do you mind helping me with another?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Sure

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Just make another post please

OpenStudy (impracticaljoker):
