You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Find each value of f(x)=\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = \"%28x%5E2%2B2x-4%29%2F%28x%2B6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "1. f(4); all this means is, that you substitute 4 for x in the above expression and find out it's numerical value (evaluate):
\n" ); document.write( "f(4) = \"%284%5E2%2B2%284%29-4%29%2F%284%2B6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "f(4) = \"%2816+%2B+8+-+4%29%2F10\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "f(4) = \"20%2F10\" = 2
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " 2. f(-8); Substitute -8 for x in the given expression
\n" ); document.write( "f(-8) = \"%28-8%5E2%2B2%28-8%29-4%29%2F%28-8%2B6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "f(-8) = \"%28%2B64-16-4%29%2F%28-2%29\" = \"44%2F%28-2%29\" = -22
