Step-by-step explanation:
X^2 +4X +4=12 subtract the 12 from both sides
X^2 +4x-8= 0
now factor if possible since this equation is not factorable you can use the quadratic formula
You have to multiple 3 times somithing then you just sudtart that to get 18
The answer for your question is b and i dont know why they say ur answers need to be 20 characters long but its b

Find the invers of f(x)
f(x) = 2x - 6
y = 2x - 6
y + 6 = 2x
2x = y + 6
x = (y + 6)/2
f⁻¹(x) = (x + 6)/2
Solve f⁻¹(x) for x = 2
Subtitute x with 2
f⁻¹(x) = (x + 6)/2
f⁻¹(x) = (2 + 6)/2
f⁻¹(x) = 8/2
f⁻¹(x) = 4
The answer is 4
