Find g(1) if g(x) = x 2 + 1.
Answer: The value of g(1) is 2.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given a function g(x) as follows:
\(g(x)=x^2+1.\)
we are to find the value of g(1).
For that, we need to put x = 1 in the definition of g(x).
Substituting x = 1 in g(x), we have
\(g(1)=1^2+1=1+1=2\\\\\Rightarrow g(1)=2.\)
Therefore, the value of g(1) is 2.
Thus, the answer is 2.
