Question

How do you...
Evaluate P(-1/2) if P(x) = 7x4 + 7x2 - 4

Answer 1

you have to plug in -1/2 everywhere you see x in the function

Answer 2

Like this : P(-1/2)=7(-1/2)^4+7(-1/2)^2-4

Answer 3

then you have to solve it?

Answer 4

Then just find out what the numbers are

Answer 5

and add them

Answer 6

do you have a calculator

Answer 7

some kind of TS thing that I don't really understand how to use

Answer 8

well, type the equation in exactly like i wrote it out and you will get the answer

Answer 9

you still there?

Answer 10

yea, still trying to figure it out because my granddaughter seems to have absconded somewhere with my calculator

Answer 11

well, then right click on what i wrote copy it and plug it into google, you will get the answer

Answer 12

ok, I think I used the wrong google, I got some reeeeeeeeeealy strange stuff.....lol

Answer 13

P(-1/2)=7(-1/2)^4+7(-1/2)^2-4
P(-1/2)=7(1/16)+7(1/4)-4
P(-1/2)=7/16+7/4-4
P(-1/2)=7/16+28/16-64/16
P(-1/2)=-29/16

Answer 14

OMG, tytytytyty so much

Answer 15

I'm never going to finish this assignment....lol

Answer 16

You're welcome
