What is the value of f(x) when x=-3? f(x)=-2x-3 f(-3)=___

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(-3) is simply x = -3. Knowing this, we can plug in -3 with the equation f(-3) = -2(-3) -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So f(-3) = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-4..? right? /.\

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not quite. Let's focus on -2(-3). When we have a equation like this, we have to multiply -2 and -3. So what is -2 x -3 =?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Perfect!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No your not :) you are doing good. Breaking the problem down always helps me! So the answer is f(-3) = 3!
