Answer:

  • f(-2) = -14
  • g(7) = -29

Explanation:

~1

Given Polynomial:

  • f(x)=2x²-3x

To Find:

  • f(-2)

Solution:

  • f(x)=2x²-3x

Substitute x = -2 onto the given polynomial,as we need to find f(-2),so x = -2.

  • f(6) = 2(-2)² -3(-2)

Simplify using PEMDAS,then.

  • f(6) = -8 - 6
  • f(6) = -14

Hence, f(6) = -14

Given polynomial:

  • g(x) = -4x-1

To Find:

  • g(7)

Solution:

g(x) = -4x-1

Substitute x = 7 onto the given polynomial,as we need to find g(7),so x = 7.

  • g(7)= -4(7) - 1

Simplify using PEMDAS.

  • g(7) = -28 - 1
  • g(7) = -29

Hence, g(7) = -29.
