Find the function values given f(x)= 6x^2 - 4.
f(0)
just plug in x=0 to get f(0) = -4
Thank you, Steve. I was thinking to do that, but I thought I was wrong.
To find the value of the function f(x) at a specific value of x, you simply substitute that value into the function and evaluate it.
In this case, f(x) = 6x^2 - 4. We are asked to find f(0), which means we need to substitute x = 0 into the function.
So, replace x with 0 in the function:
f(0) = 6(0)^2 - 4
Now, evaluate the expression:
f(0) = 6(0) - 4
Since any number multiplied by 0 is 0, we can simplify the expression further:
f(0) = 0 - 4
Finally, do the subtraction to get the value of f(0):
f(0) = -4
Therefore, the value of the function f(x) at x = 0 is -4.
