If you are buying something that cost $15 and sale tax is 6%, you can calculate final bill trough proportions:
$15:100%=$x:106%
100x=106*15, x=(106*15)/100, x=$15.9 is final bill.
You can also use easier way: $15+0.06*$15=$15.9
Explanation for 2nd way: Cost is $15, on that you need to add 6% of $15: (6%/100%)*$15 and that is 0.06*15.
Using this equation, f(3) = 23.
In order to find the value of f(3), we need to take the f(x) equation and put 3 everywhere we see x. Then we follow the order of operations to solve. So, let's start with the original.
f(x) = 2x^2 + 5sqrt(x - 2)
Now place 3 in for each x.
f(3) = 2(3)^2 + 5sqrt(3 - 2)
Now square the 3.
f(3) = 2(9) + 5 sqrt(3 - 2)
Do the subtraction inside of the parenthesis.
f(3) = 2(9) + 5sqrt(1)
Take the square root
f(3) = 2(9) + 5(1)
Multiply.
f(3) = 18 + 5
And add.
f(3) = 23
