Set 2: Polynomial Functions (Intermediate)

Explanation

Answer: B

PROBLEM

If f(x) = 3x squared + 0x - 1, find f(4).

If f(x) = 3x squared + 0x - 1, find f(4).

A.

94

B.

47

✓ Correct
C.

48

D.

45

Detailed Explanation

Choice B is the best answer. f(4) = 3(4) squared + 0(4) - 1 = 47

Why others are wrong:
A: 94 is incorrect because it does not satisfy the equation.
C: 48 is incorrect because it does not satisfy the equation.
