A) f(−2) =
B) f(0) =
C) f (1/2) =
D) f(2) =
E) f(x + 1) =
F) f(x2 + 5) =

Answer 1

To evaluate the function f(x) = 5|x - 4|, we can substitute the given values into the function.

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate the function f(x) = 5|x - 4| at the indicated values:

A) f(-2) = 5|-2 - 4| = 5|-6| = 5 * 6 = 30

B) f(0) = 5|0 - 4| = 5|-4| = 5 * 4 = 20

C) f(1/2) = 5|1/2 - 4| = 5|-7/2| = 5 * 7/2 = 35/2 = 17.5

D) f(2) = 5|2 - 4| = 5|-2| = 5 * 2 = 10

E) f(x + 1) = 5|x + 1 - 4| = 5|x - 3|

F) f(x2 + 5) = 5|x2 + 5 - 4| = 5|x2 + 1|
