given the function f decrisbe by f(x)=8x,find each of the following a.) f(-12) b.) f(6) c.) f(31)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

a) replace EVERY x with -12 to get f(-12) = 8(-12) = -96 Does that make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i times each number by 8

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

exactly

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

8x means "8 times some number x", in part a), x was -12. So it's 8 times -12
