i think it is 27 i did 5+4 then i did 9x3 and got 27
Plug the x value which is 2 back to the x and solve.
I gave you two answers because I wasn’t sure if the question was (x^2) - 2 or x^2-2.
Those two functions look similar but is totally different so keep that in mind.
Hope you have a victorious day!
