Hello today we're gonna be solving a function for a specific value. So the function given to us is G. Of X is equal to X cubed minus three. And the problem is telling us that we want to find the value for G. of zero. Well recall that zero is our input value here which means that X is going to equal to zero. So what we want to do is go ahead and input the value for zero for every variable insight dysfunction. Doing so is going to give us G of zero is equal to zero cubed minus three. So just to make sure all I've done is just go ahead and input zero for a variable X and replace every instance of X in the function with zero. Now all we have to do is just go ahead and simplify well zero cubed is just going to be zero. So nothing really happens to that value which means that we're just left with negative three. So G of zero is going to equal to negative three. And that's gonna be our solution. That also means that the solution to this problem is going to be be so I hope this video helps you in finding specific values for a function. And I'll see you all in the next video
