Evaluate the function at each specified value of the independent variable and simplify.

Question

h(t) = t² - 2t

(a) h(2) (b) h(1.5) (c) h(x+2)

Answer 1

Just plug in the given value or expression for t in the equation for h(t) and evaluate. It is just arithmetic. I will do the first one for you.

h(2) = (2)² - 2(2) = 0

Now try to work the others.
