Question

Use the following function rule to find h(q+8). Simplify your answer.

h(p)=p+7
h(q+8)= ??

Answer 1

h(p) = p + 7

substitute p = q + 8

h(q + 8) = (q + 8) + 7 = q + 8 + 7 = q + 15

Answer: h(q + 8) = q + 15

Answer 2

`\bf h(p)=p+7~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{when p = q+8}}{h(q+8)}~\hspace{7em}h(q+8)=[q+8]+7 \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill h(q+8)=q+15~\hfill`
