Answer: The value of g(1) is 2.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given a function g(x) as follows:


g(x)=x^2+1.

we are to find the value of g(1).

For that, we need to put x = 1 in the definition of g(x).

Substituting x = 1 in g(x), we have


g(1)=1^2+1=1+1=2\\\\\Rightarrow g(1)=2.

Therefore, the value of g(1) is 2.

Thus, the answer is 2.

g(x) = x^2 + 1
if x=1

g(1) = 1^2 + 1
g(1) = 1 + 1
g(1) = 2
