SOLUTION: If g(x)=x^2+4x+2 find g(2) and g(x+2) so far I have g(2)= 2^2+4(2)+2 g(2)= 4+8+2 g(2)= 14 g(x+2)= (x+2)^2 + 4(x+2)+2 = x^2 + 4 + 4x + 8 + 2 = x^2 + 4x + 14

Question 274913: If g(x)=x^2+4x+2 find g(2) and g(x+2)
so far I have
g(2)= 2^2+4(2)+2
g(2)= 4+8+2
g(2)= 14
g(x+2)= (x+2)^2 + 4(x+2)+2
= x^2 + 4 + 4x + 8 + 2
= x^2 + 4x + 14
I'm not sure if I should replace x with 2 or 14?

close but not exact
the g(2) is correct
1 mistake with the g(x+2)

expand (x+2)^2

add like terms
