Answer :
The correct option is b. 76. If g(x) = x2 + 12 f(8) equal to 76.
Given:
[tex]\[ g(x) = x^2 + 12 \][/tex]
It seems there might have been a misunderstanding about f(x) and g(x). Typically, if ( f(x) ) is not explicitly defined, we would use the given function g(x).
To find f(8) , we should check if there's any further context or a different function f(x) provided. If not, we might interpret that f(x) is the same as g(x) .
From the given function [tex]\( g(x) = x^2 + 12 \)[/tex], we can evaluate g(8):
[tex]\[ g(8) = 8^2 + 12 = 64 + 12 = 76 \][/tex]
Therefore, [tex]\( f(8) = g(8) = 76 \)[/tex]
So, the correct answer is 76.
The complete question is- If [tex]\[ g(x) = x^2 + 12 \][/tex], what does f(8) equal?
a. 48
b. 76
c. 66
d. 28
