You plug in the values for x in each respective equation.
a) f(3) = 3 + 1 which equals: 4.
so, f(3) = 4
b) g(3) = (3)^2 - 3 which equals 9 - 3, which equals 6.
so, g(3) = 6.
hope this helps! (:
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 3 / x - 1 = x + 1
- x² - x
------------
0 x + 3
- x - 1
-------------
0 4
the remainder is 4
Locate the number 2 on the x axis, draw a vertical line to the graph of the function, and then draw a horizontal line to the y axis, as shown below. The coordinates of the point are (2, f(2)). The y value of the point is f(2). Read the y value of this point on the y axis
