find F(2) for the polynomial shown below.
F(x)=(x^4)-(2x^3)+(3x^2)-(10x+3'0
Substitute 2 for x in the polynomial to work this out. Be sure to watch your signs!
I hope this will help.
To find F(2) for the given polynomial, you need to substitute 2 for x in the polynomial expression and simplify.
So, let's substitute 2 for x:
F(2) = (2^4) - (2^3) + (3 * 2^2) - (10 * 2) - 3
Now, let's simplify each term:
F(2) = 16 - 8 + 12 - 20 - 3
Next, let's combine like terms:
F(2) = 16 - 8 + 12 - 20 - 3 = -3
Therefore, F(2) for the given polynomial is -3.
I hope this explanation helps you understand how to find F(2) for a polynomial by substituting the value of x and simplifying.
