Add, -11.5x and move it over to 8.5x
Then, subtract them together and you get 20x + 51.86 = 51.76
And you move (subtract) 51. 86 over to 51.76, subtract that and you get 20x = -0.1
Divide, and your answer is -200
112 is the answer. I am not really sure what the parenthesis are for, but those answers in the parenthesis are wrong.

Answer: 41</h3>
Work Shown:
f(x) = 6x^2 - 13
f(x) = 6(x)^2 - 13
f(-3) = 6(-3)^2 - 13 ... replace every x with -3; use PEMDAS to simplify
f(-3) = 6(9) - 13
f(-3) = 54 - 13
f(-3) = 41
