What is f(4) if f(x)= |3x + 4| - 2

What is (12+4)-2?

14

To find the value of f(4) in the given function f(x) = |3x + 4| - 2, we need to substitute x = 4 into the function and evaluate it.

First, substitute x = 4 into the function:
f(4) = |3(4) + 4| - 2

Next, simplify the expression inside the absolute value:
f(4) = |12 + 4| - 2
f(4) = |16| - 2

Since the absolute value of 16 is 16, we can rewrite the expression as:
f(4) = 16 - 2

Finally, evaluate the expression:
f(4) = 14

Therefore, f(4) = 14.
