      Solution
Suppose that F(x+3)= 3x2+7x+4 and
   F(x)= ax2+bx+c. What is a+b+c?



First, you take the equation F(x)= ax2+bx+c and substitute (x+3) for
x.

F(x)= ax2+bx+c

F(x+3)= a(x+3)2 + b(x+3) + c

F(x+3)= a(x2+6x+9) + bx + 3b + c

F(x+3)= ax2 + 6ax + 9a + bx + 3b + c

F(x+3)= ax2 + (6a+b)x + 9a + 3b + c
In the equation F(x+3)= 3x2+7x+4,
 3 is the a term, 7 is the b term, and 4 is the c term. In
                        the equation
            F(x+3)= ax2 + (6a+b)x + 9a + 3b + c,
   a is the a term, (6a+b) is the b term, and 9a is the c
                            term.



If you set the terms equal to each other, you get
a=3, 7= 6a+b, and 4= 9a + 3b + c.

Now you have a system of two variables with
7= 6a+b and 4= 9a + 3b + c.
Solve:

7= 6a + b
4= 9a + 3b + c

7= 6a + b         4= 9a + 3b + c
7= 6(3)+ b       4= 9(3) + 3(-11) + c
7= 18 + b        4= 27 - 33 + c
-11= b           4= -6 + c
                 10= c

a+b+c=
3-11+10=2
                    a+b+c=2

Potw solution

  • 2. Suppose that F(x+3)= 3x2+7x+4 and F(x)= ax2+bx+c. What is a+b+c? First, you take the equation F(x)= ax2+bx+c and substitute (x+3) for x. F(x)= ax2+bx+c F(x+3)= a(x+3)2 + b(x+3) + c F(x+3)= a(x2+6x+9) + bx + 3b + c F(x+3)= ax2 + 6ax + 9a + bx + 3b + c F(x+3)= ax2 + (6a+b)x + 9a + 3b + c
  • 3. In the equation F(x+3)= 3x2+7x+4, 3 is the a term, 7 is the b term, and 4 is the c term. In the equation F(x+3)= ax2 + (6a+b)x + 9a + 3b + c, a is the a term, (6a+b) is the b term, and 9a is the c term. If you set the terms equal to each other, you get a=3, 7= 6a+b, and 4= 9a + 3b + c. Now you have a system of two variables with 7= 6a+b and 4= 9a + 3b + c.
  • 4. Solve: 7= 6a + b 4= 9a + 3b + c 7= 6a + b 4= 9a + 3b + c 7= 6(3)+ b 4= 9(3) + 3(-11) + c 7= 18 + b 4= 27 - 33 + c -11= b 4= -6 + c 10= c a+b+c= 3-11+10=2 a+b+c=2
