Answer:
1. F(-5) = -9
2. F(-4) = -7
3. F(1) = 3
4. F(3) = 7
5. F(5) = 11
Explanation:
For each problem, F(x) is replaced with x.
An example is F(-5) = 2x + 1 (your first question).
To solve this, you replace x with -5.
This creates F(-5) = 2(-5) +1
We just simplify by multiplying -5 by 2 and then adding 1.
-5 times 2 equals -10. -10 plus 1 equals -9.
Your final answer for this example problem would be F(-5) = -9.
This applies to all problems as such -- F(x) where x inside the parentheses replaces all x values in the equation.
