Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming f(x) = 4/3(x + 3)2 is meant to be written as:


f(x) = (4)/(3)(x+3)^(2)

for f(-8), you plug in -8 wherever there is an x in f(x)


f(-8) = (4)/(3)((-8)+3)^(2)\\\\f(-8) = (4)/(3)(-5)^(2)\\\\f(-8) = (4)/(3)25\\\\f(-8) = (100)/(3)\\\\f(-8) = 33(1)/(3)\\\\


f(-8) ≈ 33.3333333...
