Answer:

f(x-3)= x^2 -11x +24

Explanation:

We want to find an equivalent expression for f(x-3)

To do this, we can simply substitute every 'x' variable in f(x) by 'x-3'

Therefore f(x-3)= (x-3)^2 -5*(x-3)

Lets re arrange the expression by grouping terms.

f(x-3)=x^2 - 6x +9 -5x + 15

f(x-3)= x^2 -11x +24
