You can put this solution on YOUR website!
given f(x)=2x%5E2-3x%2B5, find f(3), f(0), and f(-1)
Functions take an input and produce an output, given the input x, the output will be 2%28x%29%5E2-3%28x%29%2B5, given the input 3, the output will be
2%283%29%5E2-3%283%29%2B5 which is
18-9+5=14
Just replace x with the new input
so for f(0)
2%280%29%5E2-3%280%29%2B5=5
