Capitolo 3, Problema 30a
Evaluate each function at the given values of the independent variable and simplify. g(x) = x² - 10x - 3 a. g(-1)
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Substitute the given value of the independent variable, x = -1, into the function g(x) = x² - 10x - 3. This means replacing every occurrence of x in the function with -1.
The function becomes g(-1) = (-1)² - 10(-1) - 3. Simplify each term individually.
First, calculate (-1)². Recall that squaring a negative number results in a positive value, so (-1)² = 1.
Next, calculate -10(-1). Multiplying a negative number by another negative number results in a positive value, so -10(-1) = 10.
Finally, combine all the terms: g(-1) = 1 + 10 - 3. Simplify the expression by performing the addition and subtraction in order.

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Function Evaluation
Function evaluation involves substituting a specific value for the independent variable in a function to find the corresponding output. In this case, to evaluate g(-1), we replace x in the function g(x) = x² - 10x - 3 with -1, allowing us to compute the value of the function at that point.

Evaluating Composed Functions
Quadratic Functions
A quadratic function is a polynomial function of degree two, typically expressed in the form g(x) = ax² + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants. The function g(x) = x² - 10x - 3 is a quadratic function, and its graph is a parabola that opens upwards, which is essential for understanding its behavior and properties.
