Please for the love of god someone help me answer this question!!!

C(x) is the function defined by the following graph below (No work required for Parts 1 and 2):


Part 1: Evaluate C(-2)

Part 2: Evaluate C(0)

Part 3: Determine [C(-2)^4] * [6*C(0)]^2

Part 1

Locate -2 on the x axis. Draw a vertical line until that vertical line crosses the parabola. Afterward, move left or right until reaching the y axis. After doing this, you should arrive at y = -3.

The input x = -2 leads to the output y = -3

Therefore C(-2) = -3 and we can state (-2,-3) is one point on the parabola.

Answer: -3

===========================================

Part 2

Follow similar steps as the previous part. This time we're on the y axis.

The parabola crosses the y axis at the location -1. This is the y intercept.

Answer: -1

===========================================

Part 3

The notation [C(-2)^4] is a bit strange. Did you mean to write [C(-2)]^4 instead? If so, then we raise the result of part 1 to the 4th power.

[C(-2)]^4 = [-3]^4 = 81

And also

[6*C(0)]^2 = [6*(-1)]^2 = [-6]^2 = 36

Then,

[C(-2)]^4*[6*C(0)]^2 = (81)*(36) = 2916

Answer: 2916
