Example 1: Evaluate the following functions at x = 2. 1. f (xx) = 5x + 3 Answer: f (x) = 5(2) + 3 = 10 + 3 = 13 2. r (x) = 3x2 - 2x + 1 Answer: r (x) = 3(2)2 - 2(2) + 1 = 12-4+ 1=9 3. h (x) = vx+2 Answer: h()) = v2 +2 = v4 = 2 4. m (x) = 2x+3 x-1 Answer: m(x = 2 (2)+3 . = 7 2-1 Example 2: Fir d h(-6) and m(1) where h and m are as defined in the previous example. Answer. This is not possible. When x is replaced by -6, the resulting number is -4 and square root of a negative number is not a real number. So, -6 is not in the domain of h (x). m(1) is not defined since denominator becomes 0. So, 1 is not in the domain of the function. Example 3: Evaluate the following functions, where fand r are as defined in Example 1. a. f (2x + 1) b. r(3x - 2) Answer: a. Substitute (2x + 1) to the variable x in f (x) = 5x + 3. So, (2x + 1)- 5(2x + : )+ 3 * 10x+5+3 f(2x + 1) = 10x + 8. b. Substitute (3x - 2) to the variable x in r(x) = 3x2 - 2x + 1. So, r(3x - 2) = 3(3x - 2)'- 2(3x - 2) + 1 - 3(9x - 12x + 4) - 6x + 4 + 1 = 27x2 - 36x + 12 - Gx + 4+1 r(3x - 2) = 27x2 - 42x + 17.TASK 1. Evaluate the functions with the given values from the domain.
