Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we must substitute the x's in the equation for -2
So the equation will look like
f(-2)= 9[tex](-2)^{2}[/tex] - 5(-2) +2
Now we can simplify the equation by solving the exponents
[tex]-2^{2}[/tex]= 4
Now we enter that back into our previous equation which will now look like
f(-2)=9(4)-5(-2)+2
Next, multiply all the parenthesis
9(4)= 36
And
-5(-2)=10
Again, we must enter those values back into our equation so it will now look like
f(-2)=36+10+2
Now we just add the numbers to solve
So the answer is 48
