Evaluating Function at Shifted Variable

Medium Algebra Functions

Consider the function defined by the equation $$f(x) = 2x^2 - 3x + 1$$. To find the value of $$f(a + 2)$$, where $$a$$ is a variable representing any real number, you need to substitute $$a + 2$$ into the function for $$x$$. What is the resulting expression for $$f(a + 2)$$?
