Question

Evaluate the function f(x) = 1 - 7x for x = -7 .

a) f(-7) = 50
b) f(-7) = -48
c) f(-7) = 48
d) f(-7) = -50

Answer 1

To evaluate the function f(x) = 1 - 7x for x = -7, substitute -7 into the function to get f (-7) = 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate the function f(x) = 1 - 7x for x = -7, we simply substitute -7 into the function:

f (-7) = 1 - 7(-7)

= 1 + 49

= 50

Therefore, f (-7) = 50.
