Find the missing value to make the point (3, __) on the equation y=7x2+3

1 answer

To find the missing value that makes the point (3, __) on the equation \( y = 7x^2 + 3 \), substitute \( x = 3 \) into the equation.

\[ y = 7(3^2) + 3 \]

Calculating \( 3^2 \):

\[ 3^2 = 9 \]

Now substitute that value back into the equation:

\[ y = 7(9) + 3 \]

Calculating \( 7 \times 9 \):

\[ 7 \times 9 = 63 \]

Now, add 3:

\[ y = 63 + 3 = 66 \]

So the missing value is:

\[ \boxed{66} \]

Thus, the point is (3, 66).
