Question

G(x) = x2 + 1. Find a value for the dependent variable if the independent variable has a value of 1. Type a numerical answer in the space provided. Do not type spaces in your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of the dependent variable is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:   $G(x)= x^2 +1$

Here, the independent variable is $x$ and the dependent variable is $G(x)$.

Given that, the independent variable has a value of 1. That means, $x=1$

Plugging this $x=1$ into the above equation, we will get......

$G(1)= (1)^2 +1 \\ \\ \Rightarrow G(1)= 1+1 =2$

So, the value of the dependent variable is 2.
