Evaluate the following,
h(x)= 10x + 17 if X= -3
What is -30 + 17 ?
bobpursley answering in the form of a question, oh wow now I have seen everything. Yes, negative 3 times positive 10 equals negative 30.
To evaluate the function h(x) for x = -3, we can substitute -3 for x in the given equation and calculate the result.
Step 1: Replace x in the equation h(x) = 10x + 17 with -3.
h(-3) = 10(-3) + 17
Step 2: Perform the multiplication operation first.
h(-3) = -30 + 17
Step 3: Perform the addition operation.
h(-3) = -13
Therefore, when x is equal to -3, the value of h(x) is -13.
