Question

Given the function g(x) = -4x + 5, compare and contrast g(2) and g(-4). Choose the statement that is true concerning these two values.

A The values of g(2) and g(-4) cannot be compared.
B The value of g(2) is the same as the value of g(-4).
C The value of g(2) is larger than the value of g(-4).
D The value of g(2) is smaller than the value of g(-4).

Answer 1

g(2) = -3
(-4) = 21
The value of g(2) is smaller than the value of g(-4)

Answer 2

Well.
g(2) = -4(2) + 5= -3
g(-4)= -4(-4) +5 = 21
21> -3
g(-4) > g(2)
