Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
f(x) = 5x - 2
f(6) is x = 6
Step 2: Evaluate
- Substitute in x [Function]: f(6) = 5(6) - 2
- Multiplication: f(6) = 30 - 2
- Subtraction: f(6) = 28
Answer: 28
=========================================================
Explanation:
Everywhere you see an x, replace it with 6
f(x) = 5x - 2
f(6) = 5*6 - 2
f(6) = 30 - 2
f(6) = 28
Remember that 5x is the same as 5*x or "5 times x". So that's why 5x turned into 5*6 after replacing x with 6. After every x is replaced, you follow the order of operations PEMDAS to simplify.
