Math Problem Statement

Evaluate h(5t^2) given that h(t) = 11 - 7t.

Solution

The problem asks you to evaluate h(5t2)h(5t^2) given that h(t)=117th(t) = 11 - 7t.

Let's solve it step by step:

  1. The function h(t)h(t) is given as: h(t)=117th(t) = 11 - 7t

  2. Now, instead of tt, we need to evaluate h(5t2)h(5t^2). This means we substitute 5t25t^2 for tt in the function: h(5t2)=117(5t2)h(5t^2) = 11 - 7(5t^2)

  3. Simplifying the expression: h(5t2)=1135t2h(5t^2) = 11 - 35t^2

Thus, the answer is: h(5t2)=1135t2h(5t^2) = 11 - 35t^2

  2. How would you approach evaluating h(2t3)h(2t^3) for the same function?
  3. Can you graph the function h(t)=117th(t) = 11 - 7t?
  4. How does substitution work in more complex functions like trigonometric or exponential?
  5. How can you verify the correctness of substituted functions?

Tip: Always double-check your substitution step, as mistakes there can lead to incorrect results in function evaluation!
