To complete the input-output table for the function \( f(x) = (x - 2)^2 + 3 \), we will calculate \( f(x) \) for each given value of \( x \).

  1. For \( x = 1 \): \[ f(1) = (1 - 2)^2 + 3 = (-1)^2 + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4 \]

  2. For \( x = 2 \): \[ f(2) = (2 - 2)^2 + 3 = (0)^2 + 3 = 0 + 3 = 3 \]

  3. For \( x = 3 \): \[ f(3) = (3 - 2)^2 + 3 = (1)^2 + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4 \]

  4. For \( x = 4 \): \[ f(4) = (4 - 2)^2 + 3 = (2)^2 + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7 \]

Now, we can fill out the input-output table:

\[ \begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline x & f(x) \ \hline 1 & 4 \ \hline 2 & 3 \ \hline 3 & 4 \ \hline 4 & 7 \ \hline \end{array} \]

So the final answers are:

  • \( f(1) = 4 \)
  • \( f(2) = 3 \)
  • \( f(3) = 4 \)
  • \( f(4) = 7 \)
