Identify Function and Value: Identify the function and the value to be substituted into the function.We have the function f(x)=−x2−6x+17 and we need to find f(1).
Substitute x=1: Substitute x=1 into the function.f(1)=−(1)2−6(1)+17
Perform Calculations: Perform the calculations step by step.First, calculate the square of 1.−(1)2=−1
Calculate Square of 1: Multiply 6 by 1. -6(1)=−6
Multiply by 6: Add the results from Step 3 and Step 4 to 17. f(1)=−1−6+17
Add Results to 17: Perform the addition.f1 = 10
