Evaluate g(2)g(2) for the function g(x)=9x2+4x21g(x) = 9x^2 + 4x - 21.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The function is g(x)=9x+4x21g(x) =9x^{} +4x -21 . We need to evaluate the function at x=x =

STEP 2

To evaluate the function g(x)g(x) at x=2x =2, we substitute x=2x =2 into the function.
g(2)=9(2)2+4(2)21g(2) =9(2)^{2} +4(2) -21

STEP 3

First, calculate the square of2.
(2)2=(2)^{2} =So, the equation becomesg(2)=9()+(2)21g(2) =9() +(2) -21

STEP 4

Next, multiply9 by4.
9(4)=369(4) =36So, the equation becomesg(2)=36+4(2)21g(2) =36 +4(2) -21

STEP 5

Then, multiply4 by2.
4(2)=84(2) =8So, the equation becomesg(2)=36+821g(2) =36 +8 -21

STEP 6

Finally, perform the addition and subtraction from left to right.
36+821=2336 +8 -21 =23So, g(2)=23g(2) =23.
