Question

Given the function g(x) = 8x − 2, compare and contrast g(−2) and g(4). Choose the statement that is true concerning these two values.

The value of g(−2) is larger than the value of g(4).

The value of g(−2) is the same as the value of g(4).

The value of g(−2) is smaller than the value of g(4).

The values of g(−2) and g(4) cannot be compared.

Answer 1

need help

Answer 2

Plug in -2 and 4 where x is in g(x)

Answer 3

g(x) = 8x - 2

x = -2

Therefore g(-2) = 8(-2) - 2

g(-2) = -16 - 2 = -18

Do the same for 4

Answer 4

8(4)-2

Answer 5

Okay, then what?

Answer 6

g(4) = 8(4) - 2
g(4) = 32 - 2

Answer 7

30

Answer 8

since g(x) has positive slope, g(4) will be larger than g(-2)
or u can solve and see it like that^^

Answer 9

right, so compare and contrasting, is 30 greater, lesser or equal to -18?

Answer 10

Arielllllllllll just help u, i think THEY ARE RIGHT

Answer 11

umm' noo

Answer 12

why no? as we can see f(4)=30 is > f(-2)=-18
so option C is correct choice.
