Let f(x) = 24/ 3x-2 Find f(-2). Answer choice -6 -3 3 6

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

wel.ll.. pretty much the same way

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf f({\color{brown}{ x}})=\cfrac{24}{3{\color{brown}{ x}}-2}\qquad \qquad f({\color{brown}{ -2}})=\cfrac{24}{3{\color{brown}{ (-2)}}-2}\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

notice, all you do is replace any "x"s in the equation by the "given" value

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-6?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf f({\color{brown}{ x}})=\cfrac{24}{3{\color{brown}{ x}}-2}\qquad \qquad f({\color{brown}{ -2}})=\cfrac{24}{3{\color{brown}{ (-2)}}-2}\to \cfrac{24}{-6-2}\to \cfrac{\cancel{ 24 }}{-\cancel{ 8 }}\)
