Question

If h(x) = −5x − 10, find h(−2).

-20
1.6
-1
0

Answer 1

substitute -2 for x and solve

Answer 2

\[h(-2)=-5*(-2)-10=?\]

Answer 3

\(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle h(x)=-5x-10 }\)

If I, for instance, we to solve for h(-6), then this is what I would do...

Step 1: Plug in x=-6
\(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle h(\color{#ff0000 }{-6})=-5\color{#ff0000 }{(-6)}-10 }\)

Ste[ 2: Simplify this expression
(We know that 6•5=30, and when the two numbers are negative, your product is still positive. So (-5)•(-6)=30, still)
\(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle h(\color{#ff0000 }{-6})=30-10 }\)
And your fuinal answer would be,
\(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle h(\color{#ff0000 }{-6})=20}\)
