2、-5)? GRE( QUANTITATIVE)练习试卷 22答案与解析 1 【正确答案】 To solve, substitute 6 for x in the function: f(6)=62-4(6)+8 f(6)=36-24+8 f(6)=20 2 【正确答案】 To solve, substitute (x+1) for x in the function: f(x+1)=(x+1) 2 (x+1)(x+1) x2+x+x+1 x2+2x+1 3 【正确答案】 The problem gives g(x)=3x and f(x)=x+2 and asks for gf(x). The function gf(x) means that all of the x values in g(x) are replaced with f(x), as follows: gf(x)=3f(x) gf(x)=3(x+2) gf(x)=3x+6 4 【 正确答案】 To solve, substitute 2 for x in the function: 5 【正确答案】 To solve, substitute -5 for x in the function: f(-5)=(-5) 2+(-5) f(-5)=25-5 f(-5)=20
