What is the value of the polynomial \(x^2+1\) when \(x=1\)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 2
Substituting \(x=1\) gives \(x^2+1=1^2+1=1+1=2\), so the correct answer is 2. Choosing 1 means ignoring the constant term \(+1\). In the exam, calculate the power first and then perform the addition.
