f(x) = 4 * 7x
f(x) = 4 * 7(-1)
Simplify that, and simplify:
f(x) = 4 * (2)

evaluate the function f(x)=4x7^x for x=-1 and x=2. show your work
@angiemarieeee
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=2 would 196 i think..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that is if you meant to put 7^x if it is just 7x then it would be 56
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@perl
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it is 7^x

evaluate the function f(x)=4x7^x for x=-1 and x=2. show your work
OpenStudy (dan815):
is it not
\[4*7^x\]
OpenStudy (dan815):
\[f(x)=4*7^x\]
when x is substituted with 2 you get
\[f(2)=4*7^2=4*49=196\]
OpenStudy (dan815):
\[f(-1)=4*7^{-1}=4*1/7=4/7\]
OpenStudy (dan815):
when you have a negative exponent its the same as 1/that number to a positive exponent

for example
OpenStudy (dan815):
\[7^{-1} = \frac{1}{7^1}\]
\[7^{-2} = \frac{1}{7^2}\]
\[7^{-x} = \frac{1}{7^x}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so is that the answers or an example

@dan815 i still dont get it
