You just substitute the value of x in the given equation:
f(x) = 2x^2 - 5
f(-4) = 2 (-4)^2 -5 = 27
f(x) : a name given to the equation
f(-4): refer to the equation when the value of the independent variable x has the value between the brackets.

Answer:
25/42 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
5/6 of 5/7 of a mile is ...
(5/6)(5/7 mi) = 25/42 mi
Answer:
X-16 the first one
Step-by-step explanation:
The first one is equal to x-4
Since the left side of the equation says f(5), then plug in 5 for x.
So, it is:
-4|5| + 3
= -20 + 3
= 23
Yes, I'm getting C also!
Since it's asking for the left-endpoint Riemann Sum, you will only be using the top left point as the height for each of your four boxes, making -1, -2.5, -1.5, and -0.5 your heights. The bases are all the same length of 2. You don't include f(8) because you're not using right-endpoints, and that would also add another 5th box that isn't included in the 0 to 8 range.
