Evaluate each function at each of the four points.

Functions:
f(x) = x2 – 5x – 6
f(x) = 23 – 22 – 12
f(x) = 5.24

Points:
f(0)
f(2)
f(-1)
f(6)

Step-by-step explanation:

All we have to do is input the given values of x into the functions.

The first function:

f(x) = x^2 - 5x - 6

f(0) = 0^2 - 5(0) - 6 = 0 - 0 - 6 = -6

f(0) = -6

f(2) = 2^2 - 5(2) - 6 = 4 - 10 - 6 = -12

f(2) = -12

f(-1) = -1^2 - 5(-1) - 6 = 1 + 6 - 6 = 1

f(-1) = 1

f(6) = 6^2 -5(6) - 6 = 36 - 30 - 6 = 0

f(6) = 0

The second function:

f(x) = x^3 - x^2 - 12

f(0) = 0^3 - 0^2 - 12 = 0 - 0 - 12 = -12

f(0) = -12

f(2) = 2^3 - 2^2 - 12 = 8 - 4 - 12 = -8

f(2) = -8

f(-1) = -1^3 - (-1)^2 - 12 = -1 - 1 - 12 = -14

f(-1) = -14

f(6) = 6^3 - 6^2 - 12 = 216 - 36 - 12 = 168

f(6) = 168

The third function:

f(x) = 5 * 2^x

f(0) = 5 * 2^0 = 5 * 1 = 5

f(0) = 5

f(2) = 5 * 2^2 = 5 * 4 = 20

f(2) = 20

f(-1) = 5 * 2^-1 = 5 * 0.5 = 2.5

f(-1) = 2.5

f(6) = 5 * 2^6 = 5 * 64 = 320

f(6) = 320

its adding 5.5 each time
