Question 109046:  For f(x) = 2x – 11, find f(2) 
 Answer by bucky(2189)      (Show Source): 
You can  put this solution on YOUR website! All f(2) means is that you go to the given f(x) and replace every x with 2 and then simplify. 
. 
So for this problem start with: 
. 
f(x) = 2x - 11 
. 
replace every x with 2 to get: 
. 
f(2) = 2*2 - 11 
. 
multiply out the right side and simplify it to: 
. 
f(2) = 4 - 11 
. 
simplify further by subtracting 11 from 4 to arrive at: 
. 
f(x) = -7 
. 
That's the answer ... f(x) is equal to -7 
. 
Hope this helps you to understand what you do with problems such as these.
