Question

Let f(x) = 2x – 3. Let g(x) = x2. Find f(-3) - g(3)

Answer 1

-18

Explanation:

We know

f(x) = 2x – 3 g(x) = x²

Find f(-3) - g(3)

First, let's find f(-3):

f(-3) = 2(-3) - 3

f(-3) = - 6 - 3

f(-3) = -9

Next, let's find g(3):

g(3) = 3²

g(3) = 9

Now we have:

f(-3) - g(3) = - 9 - 9 = - 18

So, the answer is -18.
