42 Given the following function find f 4 f 0 and f1 fx 4x 2
#42
Given the following function, find f( -4), f (0), and f(1).
f(x) = 4x -2
Solution
given function is
f(x) = 4x-2
(i) f(-4)
substitiute x= - 4 in the function f(x)
we get
f(-4)= 4(-4)-2= -16-2 = -18
(ii) f(0)
substitiute x= 0 in the function f(x)
we get
f(0)= 4(0)-2 = 0-2 = -2
(iii) f(1)
substitiute x= 4 in the function f(x)
we get
f(1)= 4(1)-2= 4-2= 2
therefore
for the given functio f(x)= 4x-2
f(-4) = -18,
f(0)= 0 and
f(1) = 2
