Question

Let g(x) = 2x2 - 11x. Find g(1).
A) -13
B) -9
C) 9
D) 11

Answer 1

(B) -9

Explanation:

g(x) = 2x² - 11x

To find g(1), we substitute x = 1 into g(x).

g(x) = 2x² - 11x

g(1) = 2(1)² - 11(1) = 2 - 11 = -9

Answer 2

B) -9

EXPLANATION

The given function is

`g(x) = 2 {x}^(2) - 11x`

Put x=1 into the given function to obtain;

`g(1) = 2 {(1)}^(2) - 11(1)`

Simplify to get:

`g(1) = 2 (1) - 11(1)`

`g(1) = 2 - 11 = - 9`

The correct choice is B.
