To find the value of \( f(x) = x^2 + 9 \) for \( x = 2 \), we will substitute \( 2 \) into the function:
\[ f(2) = (2)^2 + 9 \]
Calculating \( (2)^2 \):
\[ (2)^2 = 4 \]
Now adding \( 9 \):
\[ f(2) = 4 + 9 = 13 \]
However, the options you provided (26, 14, 25, 34) do not include 13. It seems there may have been a misunderstanding in either the options or the function to evaluate.
Please verify the function or options if you'd like further assistance!
