Question

evaluate f(x) = -x squared +1 for x = -3

Answer 1

Answer:

f(x) = -8  when  x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) = -x² + 1

It is required to find f(x) when x = 3

So, we need to substitute with x =3 at the function f(x)

at x = 3

f(x) = - 3² + 1 = - 9 + 1 = -8

So, at x = 3 ⇒ f(x) = -8

see the attached figure.
