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.

Give an example of this when adding two rationalnumbers with different signs and provide the product.

kolezko [41]

ANSWER:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{5}+-\frac{8}{3}=-\frac{28}{15} \\ \frac{4}{5}\cdot-\frac{8}{3}=-\frac{32}{15} \end{gathered}$

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Rational numbers are all numbers that can be expressed as a fraction, that is, as the quotient of two whole numbers.

Therefore, an example would be:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{5}\text{ and - }\frac{8}{3} \\ \text{adding} \\ \frac{4}{5}+-\frac{8}{3}=\frac{4}{5}-\frac{8}{3} \\ \frac{4}{5}-\frac{8}{3}=\frac{4\cdot3-5\cdot8}{5\cdot3}=\frac{12-40}{15}=-\frac{28}{15} \\ \text{ product} \\ \frac{4}{5}\cdot-\frac{8}{3}=-\frac{4\cdot8}{5\cdot3}=-\frac{32}{15} \end{gathered}$
