If h(x) = -2x - 10 you should put the -4, -2. -18, -3 or/and -16 in the place of the x in the formula.
So for example:

h(-4) = -2 * (-4) - 10 = 8 - 10 = -2

Or at least, that's what I think the answer should be.

Good luck!

Answer:

The correct option is (a) i.e.

h(-4) = -2

Explanation:

The mathematical expression is given as :


h(x)=-2x-10......(1)

Where

h(x) is dependent on x

We need to find the value of h(x) at x = -4 . Putting the value of x in equation (1) we get :


h(-4)=-2(-4)-10


h(-4)=8-10

h(-4) = -2

The value of h(-4) is -2. So, the correct option is (a). Hence, this is the required solution.
