Answer: Third Option


g(3) = 11

Explanation:

We have the function
g(x) = x^2 + 2 and we must find the value of g(3).

To find g (3) we must evaluate the function g(x) for x = 3. That is, we must replace x = 3 in the function

Then


g(x) = x^2 + 2


g(3) = (3)^2 + 2


g(3) = 9 + 2


g(3) = 11

Finally the correct answer is the third option

For this case we have a function of the form
y = g (x)

Where:


g (x) = x ^ 2 + 2

We must find the value of the function when x = 3. Then we substitute:


g (3) = 3 ^ 2 + 2\\g (3) = 9 + 2\\g (3) = 11

Thus, the value of the function when
x = 3 is
y = 11

Answer:


g (3) = 11
