Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = 2ˣ

f(-6) is x = -6 for function f(x)

Step 2: Evaluate

1. Substitute in x [Function]:                                                                                f(-6) = 2⁻⁶
2. Exponential Rule - Rewrite:                                                                               f(-6) = 1/2⁶
3. Exponents:                                                                                                         f(-6) = 1/64
