Question

Im having a brain fart moment rn. Does f(27) mean to replace the x with 27 or f(x) with 27

Answer 1

it means replace x with 27

Explanation:

`\sqrt[3]{27 + 98} + 5 = \sqrt[3]{125} + 5 = 5 + 5 = 10`

Answer 2

10

Explanation:

f(27) means to replace the x, not f(x). This means the equation would be
`f(27)=\sqrt[3]{27+98}+5`. First, take the cube root of 27 + 98 (125), which equals 5. Then add this to the 5 on the outside of the cube root to get 10.
