Question

For the function:

f(x) = -3x^4

complete the table of values using at least 5 points.


x -2 -1 0 1 2

f(x)

Answer 1

To find the value of f(x) at the 5 provided values of x, we substitute that particular value for x in
`-3x^4`.

Doing so, we get:


`f(-2)=-3(-2)^4=-3(16)=-48\\ f(-1)=-3(-1)^4=-3(1)=-3\\ f(0)=-3(0)^4=0\\ f(1)=-3(1)^4=-3(1)=-3\\ f(2)=3(2)^4=-3(16)=-48`
