Question

F(x)=x^2+8x-10 find f(a)+5

Answer 1

We conclude that:

f(a) + 5 = a² + 8a - 5

Explanation:

Given

The function is given by

f(x) = x²+8x-10

To determine

f(a)+5

In order to determine f(a)+5, first, we need to determine f(a).

Now substitute x = a in the function f(x) = x²+8x-10

f(a) = (a)² + 8(a) - 10

f(a) = a² + 8a - 10

Thus,

f(a) + 5 = (a² + 8a - 10) + 5

f(a) + 5 = a² + 8a - 5

Therefore, we conclude that:

f(a) + 5 = a² + 8a - 5
