Q. Given the function f(x)=−21x+1, find the value of f(−32) in simplest form.Answer:
Substitute x in function: Substitute the value of x with −32 in the function f(x). f(x)=−21x+1 f\left(-\frac{\(2\)}{\(3\)}\right) = -\frac{\(1\)}{\(2\)}\cdot\left(-\frac{\(2\)}{\(3\)}\right) + \(1
Multiply constants: Multiply the constants −21 and −32. f(−32)=(21)(32)+1 = 2×31×2+1 = 31+1
Add to get final result: Add 1 to 31 to get the final result.f(−32)=31+1=31+33=31+3=34
