Question

PLEASE HELP ME I ONLY HAVE 4 MINUTES If g(x) = -2x^5 - 4, find g(2).

A) -1028
B) -68
C) -24
D) 60

Answer 1

I am pretty sure it is this:

2 (- x^5 - 2)i

G = - _________

fx

Explanation:

Meaning if you can take it from here, I think you can get it.

The answer is g(2)= -68, B

Answer 2

`\boxed {\tt B. \ g(2)=-68}`

Explanation:

We are given the function:

`g(x)=-2x^5-4`

We want to find g(2), so we should substitute 2 in for each x.

`g(2)=-2(2)^5-4`

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction. Evaluate the exponent.

• (2)⁵= 2*2*2*2*2=32

`g(2)= -2(32)-4`

Multiply -2 and 32.

• -2*32=-64

`g(2)= -64-4`

Subtract 4 from -64.

`g(2)=-68`

The correct answer is B. g(2)= -68
