F(X)=x(x+5)
The function f is defined above. If the function g is defined by g(x)=f(x)+5, what is the value of g(3)?
I got 29 but it is wrong
well,
g(x)=f(x)+5
= x(x+5) + 5
g(3) = 3(8) + 5
= 29 , you are correct
If that is not the right answer, then there has to be a typo or error somewhere.
Did you mean g(x) = f(x+5) ?
Check what you typed with the actual question
Nope.. yeah maybe you're right, it is a typo
Thanks!
To find the value of g(3), we need to substitute x = 3 into the function g(x) = f(x) + 5.
First, let's find the value of f(3). Substitute x = 3 into the function f(x) = x(x + 5):
f(3) = 3(3 + 5) = 3(8) = 24.
Now, substitute f(3) = 24 into the function g(x) = f(x) + 5:
g(3) = f(3) + 5 = 24 + 5 = 29.
Therefore, the value of g(3) is indeed 29.
To find the value of g(3), we first need to determine the value of f(3) and then add 5 to it.
Given the function f(x) = x(x + 5), let's substitute x = 3 into f(x):
f(3) = 3(3 + 5)
= 3(8)
= 24
Now, we can compute g(3) by adding 5 to f(3):
g(3) = f(3) + 5
= 24 + 5
= 29
Therefore, the value of g(3) is indeed 29. If you obtained a different answer, it could be due to a calculation error or misunderstanding the function definition.
