Given f(x)=5+6x-x^2 find and simplify.
I have to fill in a,b and c below. (Fill in the blanks)
Functions are simpler than they appear.

f(x)=5+6x-x^2
A)f(t-2)
Sub (t-2) for each x
f(t-2) = 5 + 6(t-2) - (t-2)^2
= 5 + 6t-12 - (t^2 - 4t + 4)
= 5 + 6t-12 -t^2 + 4t - 4
= -11 + 10t - t^2
-------------------
It's just substitution.
B)f(z+h)-f(z)=____?
C)f(b)+3=_____?
