f(4) for f(x) = 2x + 3 is 11 and g(−3) for g(x) = x² is 9, so this Year 10 sheet opens by substituting into function rules. The key records a parabola graph and an x-intercept of (2, 0).
Key Takeaways
f(4) = 11 when f(x) = 2x + 3 (Q1).
g(−3) = 9 when g(x) = x² (Q2).
Q3 records a parabola as the quadratic graph.
