We have a function:

[tex]f(x)=x^2+2x+4[/tex]

We have to evaluate f(x+5).

To do so, we replace the argument x from the definition of f(x) with "x+5":

[tex]f(x+5)=(x+5)^2+2(x+5)+4[/tex]

Now, we can expand this and simplify as:

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x+5)=(x+5)^2+2(x+5)+4 \\ f(x+5)=(x^2+2\cdot5x+5^2)+(2x+10)+4 \\ f(x+5)=x^2+10x+25+2x+10+4 \\ f(x+5)=x^2+12x+39 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer: f(x+5) = x² + 12x +39
