Answer:

-10

for f(-6)

we know ,

x is -6 as we are replacing value

or,f(-6)=-3-7

to therefore f(-6)= -10

Answer:

The answer is


f( - 6) = - 10

Explanation:


f(x) = (1)/(2) x - 7

To find f(-6) , substitute the value of x that's - 6 into f(x). That is for every x in f(x) replace it with - 6

We have


f( - 6) = (1)/(2) ( - 6) - 7 \\ = - 3 - 7

We have the final answer as


f( - 6) = - 10

Hope this helps you
