f(x)=2(-x)^2+4(-x)+8 f of x = -w and thats why i plugged it in but i cant figure out the value : /

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[f(-x)=2x^2-4x+8\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on account of \(4(-x)=-4x\) , and \((-x)^2=x^2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im still confused?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

was the question \[f(x)=2x^2+4x+8\] find \[f(-x)\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i plug it into the x value cross out like and am left with x^2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first step is what you wrote on top \[f(-x)=2(-x)^2+4(-x)+8 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uhah? :) then the next step it toooo?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then \[2x^2-4x+8\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok
