Question

F(x)=-2x+2 find f(6)

Answer 1

(6,-10)

Explanation:

(-2*6)+2=-10, and the 6 is the X value, the -10 is the Y value.

Answer 2

f(6) = -10

Explanation:

Plug in 6 for x in the given equation:

f(x) = -2x + 2

f(6) = -2(6) + 2

Remember to follow PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operation, and stands for:

First, multiply. Note that when you are multiplying one negative number and one positive number together, your answer will be negative:

f(6) = -2(6) + 2

f(6) = (-2 * 6) + 2

f(6) = (-12) + 2

Next, simplify. Subtract:

f(6) = -12 + 2

f(6) = -10

-10 is your answer when f(6).
