Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

The value of function
f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x- 7 at x = -4 is -55

Explanation:

Given :
f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x- 7

We have to find the value at f(-4) and choose the correct option from the given options.

Consider the given function
f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x- 7

Since, we have to find the value of f(-4) that is value of f(x) at x = -4

Substitute, value of x = -4 in given function, we have,


f(-4) = -2(-4)^2 + 4(-4)- 7

Simplify, we have,


f(-4) = -55

Thus, the value of function
f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x- 7 at x = -4 is -55

Option (a) is correct.
