Answer: 1554 apples
Step-by-step explanation: In order to find the distance you have to subtract the biggest number from the smallest number.
4599 - 3045 = 1554 apples

Copy down the given function:
f(x)=3•2^x
Now replace both instances of x with -2:
f(-2) = 3*2^(-2). 1
Recall that 2^(-2) is the same as ------ = 1/4
2^2
Therefore, f(-2) = 3*2^(-2) = 3*(1/4) = 3/4
Remember that exponentiation has to be carried out before multiplication. That's why I did 2^(-2) before multiplying by 3.
