A)The value of g(−2) is larger than the value of g(4).
B)The value of g(−2) is the same as the value of g(4).
C)The value of g(−2) is smaller than the value of g(4).
D)The values of g(−2) and g(4) cannot be compared.

Answer 2

to find g(-2), plug in -2 instead of x, into the function g(x).

Answer 3

Same way, to find g(4), plug in 4 instead of x (into the same function).

Answer 4

I NEED to find?

Answer 6

we need to find to find the value of g(-2) and g(4) first
okay
what we will do for it
first plug -2 at the place of x in the given equation you will get
g(-2) = -18
now plug or put 4 at the place of x , you will get
g(4) = 30

Answer 7

now compare it
we get that
the value of g(-2) is less than g(4) because g(-2) = -18 and g(4) =30 .
I hope you get it
if you have any other question regarding my explanation ask me freely.
thank you

Answer 8

oh wait so the answer its D?

Answer 9
