Question

Evaluate the function for the given value: m(x) = x - 2√11 - 3x, m(-12) A) m(-12) = -14√11 B) m(-12) = -15√11 C) m(-12) = -16√11 D) m(-12) = -17√11

Answer 1

To evaluate the function m(x) = x - 2√11 - 3x at x = -12, you simply substitute -12 for x and perform the calculation:

m(-12) = (-12) - 2√11 - 3(-12)

Now, calculate the values step by step:

m(-12) = -12 + 2√11 + 36

Now, add -12 and 36:

m(-12) = -12 + 2√11 + 36 = 24 + 2√11

So, m(-12) = 24 + 2√11.
