Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In order to evaluate h(2), we need to substitute 2 for x in the expression 4x^2 - 7x + 5. Thus, h(2) = 4(2)^2 - 7(2) + 5 = 16 - 14 + 5 = 7 + 5 = 12. However, we are given additional information in the form of hexadecimal numbers, which are used to represent binary code. The numbers provided convert to: 597191045042759891749890825794737979578534771284, 597191045042759894766384298213299177669027714068, and 597191045042759894766414717349947402815432912209. None of these hexadecimal numbers have any relevance to the evaluation of h(2), therefore we can simply ignore them and choose answer choice C, which is the result of evaluating h(2) using basic algebra.
