Q:
Find f(k) when f(x)=3x^2 + 4x + 5
A:
Simply replace x by k.
f(k)=3k^2 + 4k + 5

f(k) means to replace every x you see in the function with k.
f(k) = 3x^2 + 4x + 5
f(k) = 3k^2 + 4k + 5

For more practice, do this one on your own.
Find f(apple) = 3x^2 + 4x + 5.
Replace every x with apple and you're done.
