Question

evaluate f(x) for the given values for x. then use the ordered pairs (x,f(x)) from the table to graph the function. f(x)=(x + 3)^2 for each value of x, evaluate f(x). x f(x)=(x + 3)^2 -5

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute x value

Substitute \(x = - 5\) into \(f(x)=(x + 3)^2\).
\[f(-5)=(-5 + 3)^2\]

Step2: Simplify the expression

First, calculate inside the parentheses: \(-5+3=-2\). Then square the result: \((-2)^2=4\).
\[f(-5)=4\]

Answer:

4
