Answer:

a) 18

b)x^2+10x+18

c)x^2 -6x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of plugging in the value into f(x).

a) f(-8)= -8^2 + 6(-8) +2

f(-8)= 64 + (-48) +2

f(-8)=64 + (-46)

f(-8)=18

b)  f(x+2)= (x+2)^2+6(x+2)+2

So here I'll take a break to explain what's going on, because x+2 is a binomial meaning two terms and it is being squared I have to multiply the whole thing by itself. Meaning: (x+2) x (x+2), this is also known as foiling!! and for the next part its distributing 6 into x and 2.

    f(x+2)= x^2+4x+4+6x+12+2

I'll reorder it

 f(x+2)= x^2+4x+6x+12+2+4

    f(x+2)= x^2+10x+18

c) f(-x)= -x^2+6(-x) +2

f(-x)= x^2 -6x+2
