Answer:

The answer is -77

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so assuming by x2 you mean x squared, I will solve this. So basically when you have a function, f(-7) would mean that you would have to replace all the x's in the equation with -7. So let's write that out. that would be f(-7) = -7^2 + (-7*4). So now according to PEMDAS, you would solve the exponent first, and -7^2 is equal to -49, because when you solve it you would do -(7^2), which is -(49), which is then -49. So now you have f(-7)= -49+ (4*-7). Solving for (4*-7), you get -28. This leaves you with -49 + (-28), which is -49 - 28. Simplifying that, you get the answer, which is -77.

Answer:

(-1, -1), (0, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming your function is the negative cube root of negative x, the two points listed above are on the curve. (The negatives cancel, so the function reduces to f(x) = ∛x.)

The various points relative to the curve are shown in the attachment.
