The answer is:

f(5) = 905

Work/explanation:

To evaluate the given function, plug in 5 for x:


\bf{f(x)=9x^2+5}


\bf{f(10)=9(10)^2+5}

Remember, exponents first. So we square 10 first.


\bf{f(10)=9\cdot100+5}

Multiply, then add:


\bf{f(10)=900+5}


\bf{f(10)=905}

Therefore, the answer is 905.
