Let's find the value


\\ \rm\Rrightarrow (6x+9)^2-5


\\ \rm\Rrightarrow (6+9)^2-5


\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 14^2-5

Answer:

the variable

Explanation:

Given expression:


(6x+9)^2-5

When evaluating the expression for
x=1, we need substitute 1 for the variable (
x) in the expression.

Evaluating the expression for
x=1:


\implies (6\cdot1+9)^2-5


\implies (6+9)^2-5


\implies (15)^2-5


\implies 225-5


\implies 220
