Question

Use the following function rule to find f(5). f(x) = ( x − 11 ) 2 f(5) =

Answer 1

To find \( f(5) \) using the function rule \( f(x) = (x - 11)^2 \), you simply substitute \( x \) with 5:

\[
f(5) = (5 - 11)^2
\]

Now, calculate \( 5 - 11 \):

\[
5 - 11 = -6
\]

Next, square \(-6\):

\[
(-6)^2 = 36
\]

Therefore, the final result is:

\[
f(5) = 36
\]
