Assume f(x) = x2 + 3. Find the functional value requested. f(-5) =
Plug in x=-5
You get 25+3 = 28
To find the functional value of f(-5), we need to substitute -5 into the equation f(x) = x^2 + 3 and evaluate it.
Plug in -5 for x in the equation:
f(-5) = (-5)^2 + 3
Simplify the expression:
f(-5) = 25 + 3
Add the numbers:
f(-5) = 28
Therefore, the functional value of f(-5) is 28.
