Since f(3)=1, this means that if we plug in x=3, we'll get f(x)=1.

Start with the given function.

Plug in

Plug in . Our goal is to now solve for C.

Cube 3 to get 27

Square 3 to get 9

Multiply

Combine like terms.

Subtract 177 from both sides.

Combine like terms.

So the value of C is making the function
