Question

p (x) = 2x3 - 13x2 + 17x + 12 then p(2) = _________.

a) - 8
b) 5
c) - 10
d) 10​

Answer 1

Answer:

the correct answer is option d)10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p(x) = 2 {x}^{3} - 13 {x}^{2} + 17x + 12$

we have to find the value of p(2)

putting the value of x=2 in tbe given equation we get

$p(2) = 2(2) {}^{3} - 13( {2})^{2} + 17(2) + 12 \\ = 2 \times 8 - 13 \times 4 + 34 + 12 \\ = 16 - 52 + 34 + 12 \\ = 16 - 52 + 46 \\ = 62 - 52 \\ = 10$

The value of P(2) is 10
