Answer:


\Huge \boxed{3}

Explanation:

The function is given :

f(x) = 4x + 15

For f(-3), the input for the function f(x) is -3.

Replace the x variable with -3.

f(-3) = 4(-3) + 15

Evaluate.

f(-3) = -12 + 15

f(-3) = 3

The output for f(-3) is 3.

Answer: f(-3) = 3

Step-by-step explanation: Notice that f is a function of x.

So we want to find f(-3).

We find f(-3) by plugging -3 in for x,

everywhere that x appears in the function.

So we have 4(-3) + 15.

4(-3) is -12 so we have -12 + 15 which is 3.

So f(-3) is 3.
