Function Notation4.If f(x) = 5+ 4x^2, then f(3) =

Answer 1

In order to calculate the value of f(3), we just need to use the value of x = 3 in the function f(x). So we have that:

`\begin{gathered} f(x)=5+4x^2 \\ f(3)=5+4\cdot(3)^2 \\ f(3)=5+4\cdot9 \\ f(3)=5+36 \\ f(3)=41 \end{gathered}`

Then the value of f(3) is 41.
