Answer:

a. 2

b. x^2 + 10x + 26

c. x^2 + 2x + 2

Explanation:

For each part, replace x with the value you are given and simplify.

f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 2

a.

f(2) = 2^2 - 2(2) + 2 = 2

b.

f(x + 6) = (x + 6)^2 - 2(x + 6) + 2

= x^2 + 12x + 36 - 2x - 12 + 2

= x^2 + 10x + 26

c.

f(-x) = (-x)^2 - 2(-x) + 2

= x^2 + 2x + 2
